Epson R300 ink blotching

[Glenvern]

I continually get Black ink blotches down the side of the paper (and on CD/DVD's)
whatever type of paper I use be it plain or glossy. (I think this is called bleeding)

If I do a head clean it stops for a while but comes back.

Anyone know how to stop this problem?

(I use auto reset refill carts, and the printer is set correctly for each type of paper).

thanx..

I had this happen once with some cheap refillables. The solution was to not fill them more than 50-60%, whenever filled to the maximum they would cause this problem (probably due to bad design).

Thanx.. I shall give that a go.
