Re: [Digital BW] 1280 CIS clogged?

maybe the tube has something lodged to it in the tank itself... try checking the ink tank to see if something has gotten in and try blowing through rather than sucking in. Sam

Subject: [Digital BW] 1280 CIS clogged?
I have an Epson 1280 with an MIS CIS loaded with VM inks. I let the thing
sit for too long between uses, and now the black (K) jets won't print. I
did the usual unclogging tricks, with no success. Then I tried sucking
ink from the bottom of the cart with a syringe... and it feels like
something's plugged: the plunger goes right back when I let it go. Then I
pulled the feed tube off the top of the cart, and stuck a syringe on
that, pulled back; nothing, just a total vaccuum that pulls the plunger
back when I let it go. Would I be right in guessing that the tube's
plugged? Anyone else seen this?
