Hi my fellow refillers,
I'm hoping some of you can point me in the direction I'm looking for or
I'm contemplating on purchasing a centrifuge machine from either www.speedbrite.com (625$) or one from www.thairfrance.com (725$). I'm still not clear if a centrifuge will help me with the problems I've been having when refilling carts for my customers HP 57, HP 78 and Lex 80, 70, 26,16.
Some of the problems I recently encountered are the following;
Cartridge tested(HP78)(HP78 was an oem used for 40 pages and then topped off) fine before shipping, when arrived at customer site blue/cyan color didn't print and next day yellow stopped (indicated air bubbles possibly)
Lines or streaks in blue (possibly more air bubbles).
Now my question is did I refill this the wrong way as I perform all refills my hand, syringe and needle very slowly and after I refill I use a CX HAND VAC from Rjettek to prime the cartridge (vacuum technique).
Would a centrifuge get rid of air bubbles after refilling as well as remove all ink from the cartridge?
Also for those of you who purchase the CX hand vac from RJettek.com do you use this as a vacuum fill tecnique as well?
I almost purchased a speedbrite filling station which fills the cartridge and performs a vacuum technique at the same time but it costs 1700$ which is out of my budget.
I'm wondering if I just use my cx hand vac from rjettek and attach it to the printhead while vacuuming and fill the cartridge while being sucked would this work?
I greatly appreciate if anyone could help me on this.
