I've been doing fine hacking away on a G4 Mac OS 10.4 with my CUPS configuration on my old 560, so long as I only go for black and white.  I've been saving a color cartridge for when I really wanted to go color, but then someone gave me some extra color cartridges for this printer.  But color doesn't seem to work for me using the setup I have, and I have no idea why.  I have tried "priming" the cartridges a little and even tried dousing the printer jets w/ a little "thinner".  It's not working though, and I wonder if the cartridges are just too old or something.  Then I got out the "good one" I was saving and that one doesn't work either.    So does anyone have an idea?  Does the CUPS configuration for color differ that what I set up for regular b & w?  Thanks.
