Cleavis..

The "newer" top-hat style of plugs did the trick for me..If there is an air-leak, your carts WILL drop their contents..

  Subject: [Digital BW] Help...Spongless carts draining?


  I've used spongeless carts in both a 1270 and a 1280 for over a year 
  or so. Some time ago the 1280 loaded with color inks seems to have 
  spilled it's guts (ink) out through the bottom and pooled. The 1270 
  is doing the same to my B&W inks but the ink hasn't pooled underneath 
  the printer. I wasn't sure what was up so I went to new carts, fresh 
  loaded and primed yet the printer is still dropping it's ink.

  There's nothing obviously wrong without having taken the printer 
  apart, i.e. using a flashlight looking under the rest area for the 
  print head.

  Clues? 

  Thanks,
  Cleavis
