Hiya

A while back I bought a set of i9100 carts from you. I have only just needed
to use them. The photo magenta is slightly odd. Rather than being a
transparent tank, like the rest, it's opaque pink. When I removed the tab,
it dribbled all over the desk and output tray. Needing to finish an urgent
project, I took a gamble and used it and am praying it's not going to harm
anything - so far everything seems to be OK

I was just wondering why it's different - old stock, perhaps?

Thanks

Hi There, Nope quite the reverse - as this is the latest JetTec colour
coding where each housing is coloured to match the contents. Having said
that the next latest idea is colour coded and with a transparent window.
Ever the masters of innovation the reassuring thing is that the ink inside
is the same. The very latest is a printed carton which claims 30% more ink
for free?? I'm trying to work that one out as the cartridge is the same
size.
Sorry about dribbling - or maybe it just pee'd itself with excitement at
being used :-)
If it causes a problem let me know.
Tony

Well ain't that stupid?! You can *SEE* the colour in the transparent ones -
