Hi Paul,

Don't worry, but DO check the integrity of your ink line. Check the for the
free movement of the print head and that the ink lines are not stretched at
any point of the print head movement. These are things highlighted in the
Instructions - FAQ to check regularly. Fianlly, keep an eye on that air
bubble - I would expect it to move towards the cartridges as you print.

By the way, the two main reasons that air bubbles can get into the CIS ink
lines are:
1) Running out of ink - not a big deal if you catch it early and before the
ink line is half-filled with air;
2) There is a small amount of air in the cart... as the temperature changes,
the air will expand or contract, and it is possible for the bubble to expand
into the lines - typically temporarily.

Please contact us at mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] if you have any further
questions!

Best Regards,
nij
