21/2200 carts

2006-11-26 by Steve Kale

Too approaches to the same problem.  I found with those carts that air
bubbles would accumulate below the foam and eventually impede ink flow
resulting in poor nozzle checks.  With these clear carts I am using now I
often have the opposite problem -  a very slow leak into the printer.

I’m using the MIS version of 2200 cart that has a sponge in half of it -
never had that problem.  Maybe I’m just lucky.

I have found that they eventually leak all the ink into the printer (2100).

Steve,

I've had good luck with all but the 1280 carts. With those, I think it
depends on whether the particular cart is well aligned to the printer
involved, but it's been a while since I had a 1280. My suspicions were, the
last time I had one of those, that air was leaking in due to a poor seal
between the cart and printer. That, of course, makes for perpetually bad
nozzle checks. 

Have you had bad luck with the 2200 and 2400 style carts?
