Sarah, Do you shake your carts BEFORE you install them? I can certainly
understand the frustration of uneven color, but sometimes simply shaking the
cart before we use them, will take care of those problems. There is of
course, little you can do to take care of bad batches of ink, short of doing
a really good foo doo dance.  When strange things happen shortly after an
ink change, one should look to the cart as a possible source.

This wasn't at all subtle. It's fixed now, however -- it turned out to
be a faulty LM cart -- when I changed it out, my prints went back to
normal. 

Thanks for the tip, though, it did lead me to the problem.

Best regards,
