A lot depends on how you do the cleaning. If it's AUTO, you may be wasting a lot of ink. It's a PITA any way you look at it. I have found that after a nozzle check--clean--nozzle check, the original head may be good but another one is showing misses. On and on, I had six run throughs the other day after refilling carts. HOWEVER, after one of those fiascos I always run a head alignment. In this case AUTO is okay. Seth ===================== Posted by: "brian_downunda" brian_downunda@... brian_downunda Fri Aug 15, 2008 3:41 am (PDT) ...However I still have the problem of every head clean that the printer insists on doing created gaps in the nozzle pattern, and I'm at a bit of a loss to understand why. I've had this problem with this printer with two sets of CIS carts and a broadly similar problem with a set of refillable cartidges. It seems to me that it's the printer. Ever so slightly smaller ink nipples? Head cleaning suction too strong? Anyone got any ideas? Brian Dwn
