one color it can take a min to catchup and soak back into the filt so if you see missing lines leave it sit for a bit if you just refilled.\u00a0 a good way to make a full sheet of color is to use gimp and just fill page with the plugged printer color.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ekuten.com\/image\/print-head.pdf\">http:\/\/www.ekuten.com\/image\/print-head.pdf<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p><a
