Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Re: trouble using ink set in Epson 2400

2007-05-20 by Michael Ring

I did have the same problem. In my case the hatch did close but 
sometimes it sprang open while printing.

My fix for the problem is a strip of adhesive tape on the left side of 
the ink container that  keeps the hatch in place. I have to replace the 
tape after changing ink for more than two or three times but besides 
this small issue everything is working fine now.
