Re: 3000 & image distortion (Ursula)

Tyler,

After re-installing the cartridges the printer went though 25 minutes
of cleaning cycles. I thought it would never stop. 
The printer works fine now. What a relief! I should probably look for 
lighter weight paper (archival) but I just recently bought 100 sheets
of 22x30 Somerset Velvet to go with the bulk purchase of Lysonic 
inks.
