Epson 3000 - Refill old carts with new ink?

Epson 3000 - Refill old carts with new ink?

2002-10-30 by Bo Wrangborg

Hallo,

Ok Empty the Carts for a Epson does not cost that much. However do 
you live in Sweden it will take up to three weeks to get them from 
abroad.
I just opened one of this carts - and it seems as it contains 
a "plastic bag". No tubes in it. Just a rubber seal.

Has anyone cleaned/washed such a cart, and refilled it with Quad inks.
(Hey I know it will take some time to get the "water inkfree" from my 
1290's)
Faster by opening the plastic bag, and a trick for sealing it again??

Not because of money, but because of waiting for new carts?
Also freight costs will be great compared to those $7/cart!

I have seached the archives, but no luck.

FYI:
By the way - my reseach for how many in Sweden and Finland in total 
using Qaud/Hex carbon pigment inks (Inkl Piezo) - 3 persons, 2 in 
Sweden and one in Finland that is. Anyone forgot to respond to my 
reseach?? Feel free to E-Mail me.
We will have a big Viking congress for digital B/W here near Stockholm
in the spring - all 3 are invited.

Tell a Swede or Fin photographer what this is all about - and you are 
degrageted to "Experimental Photo" (Or is that an advancement??)


Fiat Lux!
