Digital BW, The Print

Thanks Paul!

Found it very odd too! Since this 1430 never leaked (nor the cartridges) I was a bit puzzled by this "empty cartridge" problem.

I refilled the two offending cartridges; I printed  about 5 11x19 prints; I'll leave the printer "On" as usual and see tomorrow morning what is the level of the two cartridges.

I recall having the black cartridge leaking a bit one time but afterward, everything went back to normal.

I cleaned the "pads" as per video instructions from Inkjet Mall; I saw that the pad underneath the print head array was full of ink but never thought that it would be from emptying cartridges?!?

I'll see tomorrow

Thanks again

When I have the reservoie plugs out for filling a couple of my carts will leak badly unless I have the outlets plugged with one of the metal plugs MIS at least used to have/sell.
