    Bulk 6 color ink profiling

    New technique to clean BCI-6 carts

    I will bite my tongue... and answer nicely.. the NON OEM cart was pre-filled carts, the ink you see on the far left is a OEM cart with aftermarket ink. The aftermarket cart in this case was the sophia global had that foamy sponge in the cart where the OEM uses something much harder.
