Digital BW, The Print

Thanks Paul,

All the problems I'm having are not with carts I've filled. These are
new fresh just opened and filled by MIS carts.  Straight out of the
box they don't work till they've sat out (in the printer) like red
wine.  I guess they too must breath.

The time between remove one cart and install a fresh one is 5 seconds.
 I remove one with my left hand and the fresh one is already in my
right hand ready to install.

The stuff you link to below should work no matter who filled the carts
though.
Thanks

Neil
