Ink not flowing yet after head replacement in 7000

2004-10-28 by john dean

I just replaced the heads on my Epson 7000 today and put in the original set of dye carts 
to start with. I did several initial fill procedures and 2 KK2 cleanings. The inks are inching 
up the lines now but have still not reached the heads to show a nozzle pattern. The black 
channel however is not showing any ink yet in the line.

Is there something else I should do to bring the gravity to the point of filling the heads?

The heads are new and clean as well as all the dampers.

The manual isn't helping me with this.

John
