A Quicker Drying Method For Purged Cartridge.

[The Hat]

I use this method to quick dry my cartridge after giving it a good clean out. (Purging)


It’s based on exactly the same method that Ghwellsjr came up with some time ago; it’s just a little faster.

I only use a small amount of tissue paper too make contact with the sponge outlet under the screw head.


This allows gravity to remove almost all of the water from inside the cartridge,
and it also allows the wet tissue paper to dry quicker.

Did you get this idea after noticing toilet paper on your shoe?

Is there tissue paper between the paper towel and ink exit port? I would caution on the use of tissue paper as it more easily shreds and leaves particulate fibers on the sponge of the ink exit port which could lead to disruption of ink flow.

I do applaud your fearlessness in having a bottle of ink perched on your printer!

Ops maybe I should have said Paper towel rather than tissue paper, I can always use that for something else..

Stratman's Rule:

One can never have too much money, ammunition or toilet paper.
