Could I have gotten a bad batch of Eboni 6 (9% LC position)?

Could I have gotten a bad batch of Eboni 6 (9% LC position)?

2012-05-20 by chen.benedict

Hi all,

Here is the kicker I had problems with the LC position since day one of Eboni 6 in Epson 1390/1400.  

Today, I swapped The LC and Y position inks and the Banding and weird artifact swapped places as well! (I did flushes inbetween)

Anyone with similar situations?

Might I have bought the wrong ink for other models?
I bought EB6-4-LC

It could be the refillable cart is bad therefore after swapping with
the Y channel, now the banding/artifact appear on Y.

Unfortunately It seems to be the ink. But too many factors to say it was bad from the start might have been me contaminating it. Will try another bottle. from ink supply
