Leaky MIS spongeless carts

2007-09-08 by Andre Moreau

Yesterday I had to refill several spongeless carts for my Epson R220.
One of them leaked pretty bad during refilling, emptying half its
content on several layers of newspaper. I put the top plug back on,
cleaned the mess up and now I'm left with an half empty cart. 

So this time I put a bottom fill adapter (without the serynge) up the
bottom hole and ascertained that it was nice and tight. Took the plug
off, refilled the cart, put the plug back on and took out the bottom
fill adapter. Voila, no leaks. It worked but I still fear an
in-printer leak.

Cheers,
Andre
