Re: Printer Advice

Hi Ola,
I am using the R1800 for 3 years now and having always problems with clogging. As far as I know, this is not clogging of the printerhead, 
there are little bubbles in the cartridge. This problem ocures rather with refil ink than with the org. ink. I am printing now with 3 MK Carbon black, and wen the printer works I am realy satisfied. I am struggeling now since 3 weeks with clogging and can“t print in good quality. Thinking of buying R2880 in hope of fewer problems. As far as I know there are no real alternatives of using Epson printers and Quadtone (thanks to Roy for this exelent tool)
