Received some tools today to help with refiling the black cart. Refilled 3
and have not had good results. Oh, the printer in question is an DJ 970.
Don't believe the IMS black ink is pigmented and that may play into the
poor results I've seen. Ink viscosity seems thiner than pigmented factory
ink. If your printing multi page doc, printout starts looking like low on
ink. The last cart I tried has a hard time with more than one pg at a
time. Let it set between pages and it prints again.
I believe for decent results you need to use inks that are specifically
formulated for the printer your using.
