  Draining ink

  Posted by Craig Gibson on 29 July 2012 at 10:48

  What a weekend! Crashed my bike yesterday, sore as feck today, a hefty bill to fix bike and it looks like I will miss the Ulster Grand Prix!
  To cap it all of, hobbled out to the unit only to meet the ink coming out the door.
  Every cartridge drained out of the soljet!

  Any ideas?

  Thanks

  A depressed Craig

  Thanks David, can there be any other cause?

  not if it was every cart. pretty much the only reason I can think of.

  if it were one pair – then possibility issues with the capping station…but if all – then they’ve all been subjected to a vacuum (syphoned) to drain them
