maybe it was initially for ether, i'm sure ipa was in but there were several mistakes on the label. but
im sure it was ipa.
thanks for the information, i will get some ipa anyways because i think it may be good to have it.
ethanol does not attack any plastics i know. i regularly use it to clean label residue off, etc. also
use it to clean plastic eyeglasses.
i will use ethanol and water to clean out the cartridges. they are not unfilled, they are used up.
i have no idea where to get unfilled cartridges (maybe for refill sets..).
i know i don't need it dark black but i have put in a small sample quite a lot of original printer color
and it wasn't very visible at copper.
but i will make the first experiments with plain uncolored polish to make sure if it fails it is not due
to the color.
if anyone here (steve?) also wants to try the direct printing please write your results...
i know my 550c quite well, it is does not try to use color for black edges.
but i will set it to b/w anyways...

oh, yes, ipa, does it dissolve plastics? which?
thanks.
