QTR-Quadtone RIP

Really an off the wall thought but it helped me on an R2400 that kept showing clogs. Be sure the ink bottles are more or less level with the printer. I had mine on the shelf below the printer and the printer couldn’t consistently pull the ink up to the print heads.

Since I did that, everything has been fine….
