Lulu: I also recommend you do at least do a blot test on the print head. If you don't get a good blot test. Clean the print head and blot test again. You may need to use a syringe to drip the right color on each print head screen to make sure there is sufficient ink in each color channel. If...

Lulu: Here is a picture of a Pro-100 purge unit with the loose pieces intact. Look in the yellow circle. Keep us updated with your progress. Steve

The pump in the purge unit is a Peristaltic pump and should have no problem pumping uphill several inches, ( I work with this type of pump on other types of equipment, and in their applications they have no problem pumping uphill up to 12") in addition I plan to mount the bottle to the side of...
