Hi David,

I have not seen problems with the Subliject C88 bulk system. We don't sell may Artainium bulk systems, so I can't speak for that, but it is basically the same as the Sublijet one with just a couple differences in how the ink bags connect to the system.

Kevin,

My comment was based on printers using the "jar" type bulk systems, where losing the "prime", due to a loss of vacuum or elevation changes in the bottles presented another set of pesky variables.

The Sawgrass "Quick Connect" system is one that I have no experience with. Does the elevation of its mylar bags play a role in how effectively that system works?

The "jar" type of bulk system does have some "pros", but I personally don't care for any ink system that lets air get to the ink. In the "jar" system, or bulk cartridges with holes in the top, allow air to get to the ink, and anything with liquid in it will evaporate, therefore changing the consistancy of your ink over time. With the bags, they collapse to allow the ink to flow into the system, so that air does not get to the ink. As long as your container with the bags in it are at the same level as your printer, you should be ok.

Good points Kevin.

Thank you.
