Digital BW, The Print

I use MIS ink in spongeless refill carts on the 1800. My experience is that
it always takes some time to get a perfect nozzle check after a refill. I
normally do one cleaning cycle and then let it rest for a few hours. Y seems
to be the worst, but I have also noticed that it seems to foam more than the
other colours. I normally do not prime when refilling, only when starting a
new cart. I did in the beginning, but did not see any improvement re.
clogging. Yes, it is annoying, but for me still outweighs the huge costs
involved in using OEM ink. I am considering trying the new CIS from
www.Inkjetfly.com which looks promising, so that I don't have to take the
carts out for refilling - anyone have experience with this? Once the
clogging has been fixed after a refill, I seldom have problems till the next
refill.

I'm sorry to say that I had nothing but trouble with K4 inks and spongeless
cart on my R2400. The Y cart seemed to be worst for me. But I'd get clogs
out of nowhere on others as well..

I am back to the OEM carts. The hassle and all the games I had to play and
some of the waiting and other procedures I read described as possible
remedies simply negate any cost savings there might be. When I want to make
a print I want to make a print -- I don't want to have to monkey with the
printing process.

To their credit MIS was great about refunding my purchase $$$. They deserve
kudos for that.

Dave.
