Seems a little strange that when you stop using Kodak and cheap paper the problem disappears. I rarely get bad nozzle print offs infact in the time I have used my present third party ink I have only had clean nozzle checks. If I go back to either product and pigmented ink the problem returns. I have now done this twice, but never again. "Arthur Entlich" <e-printerhelp(a)mvps.org> wrote in message news:YrSve.105015$El.24623(a)pd7tw1no... > It's stretching things.
