Could someone post sources for empty tanks - bottom feed preferred - to be used as CIS reservoir tanks?
Somebody's previous comment about the potential design flaw in bottom feed CIS reservoirs - ink particulate sediment could accumulate at the base of the tank and be easily sucked into the printheads is a good observation. But, if one cants the container at a small angle, unless the amount of particulate is unbelievable, this should generally overcome this issue if it is a problem. An occasional shake of the tank(s) would also likely be a good preventative measure.
While listing, could sources also be offered for tubing (8x)? There have been some comments about the nature of various tubing materials. Has anybody conclusively determined if certain types of material are prone to clogging? I.e., a form of ink arterial sclerosis.
