Re:assistance with installing Fotonic inks.

["Jerry Olson" <jerryols@badlands.nodak.edu>]

To all:

I am currently in the process of switching to Fotonic inks in the epson
3000 printer. I have removed the epson cartridges, and installed the
cleaning cartridges. When I closed the ink door, the printer did NOT run
the 10 minute cleaning /charging cycle that I thought it was supposed to
do. 

I have started printing the cyan ink, and have several sheets of full
cyan now. Also, there is big black ink puddles scattered all across the
paper. Is this normal? It is coming out of the printer with the wet
black ink puddles. 

How many sheets of letter size paper does it take to purge the inks?

Would appreciate it if anyone is on line now, to answer right away. Its
3:15 P.M. Central time now.

Thanks guys.

Jerry
