UT2 ink colors

UT2 ink colors

2004-10-23 by jgmdp1000

Is there an address where the UT2 ink colors are displayed. I have been chasing down 
clogs for the past 4 days and after printing the purge pattern the first three ink positions 
seem almost black from 3 different cartridges. I don't know if this is correct ; maybe I'm 
just at that point of finding problems that don't exist. Is there a specific set up that one 
should use when printing the purge that is different than the normal UT2 settings? Thanks 
in advance.

Are you sure you don't have black rather than color selected in the
print driver? Or, maybe you just need to use a paper towel and a tiny
bit of Windex to soak up the ink from the parking pad. 

Just make sure you are using dye based ink, not UT2 to try to clear
the clogs. Get the printer working clog free with dye inks, then
reintroduce the UT2.
