Thank you for purchasing ST Continuous Ink Supply System. We appreciate your support and will try our best to make your experience with our products a pleasant one. Printing has been a different experience ever since you installed ST Continuous Ink Supply system on your own printer. Just imagining being able to print without regard to the ink level in those expensive little cartridges. Please take your time installing ST Continuous Ink Supply system. Do not remove your old cartridge until you have the ST CIS system primed and ready to install (to prevent the drying of heads). In addition, make sure you are getting perfect nozzle checks before installing the ST CIS system. The ST CIS system wont be able to work properly if the nozzles are previously clogged. Most people get a perfect nozzle check the first time after installing the ST Continuous Ink Supply system; others may need to run two or three cleaning cycles or let the printer sit for a while before they get the perfect results. 1General Guide:
