OK. Heres an idea for you. Take some IV bags and tubing.Fill them with
ink.Buy 4,6,8, whatever, 3000 dampers and connect to the tubing. Draw
ink through the dampers with a bottom fill adapter. Place dampers over
ink inlets on printer and secure tubes, dampers and bags appropriately.
Have fun. Oh, you will need to put a chip,preferably auto reset,in
place somewhere as well. Who knows. Enthusiasts might end up buying 
all those old 3000s just to get dampers :)
