Vacuum Oven Settings and Is centrifuge Required?

[repro]

After I have cleaned the ink cartridge and it is very damp, should I go straight to Vacuum oven to dry or centrifuge then Vacuum oven?

Also does anyone know the times and settings best used for drying and vacuuming ink cartridges after clean please?

much too scientific an approach! Keep it simple. For BCI-6 carts after purging with plain hot tap water I use an old vacuum cleaner to pull most of the water out of the ink exit port, the vent, and the hole I created for filling the cart. I then set the clean carts up on end and run a small house fan with the air flow directed to them until there are no more beads of water in the reservoir area. Couldn't be easier and you use ordinary household items that would otherwise be discarded..
