Hi, I pumped out the magenta compartment with the supplied vaccuum pump (getting it contaminated with the ink) and re-filled it. No bubbles. Should be OK then?

I'd worry if the bubble doesn't move down the tube, not otherwise. When air is a problem with Epson printers, you can't see it. It's underneath the cartridge, in the jets. Physics doesn't favor a bubble getting pulled down through the sponge filling the cartridge. Air already in the sponge is a different story. >Hi Everyone, > >I've just purchased the permajet perma-flow kit for my Epson 1200.
