Dear Raymond,

We  experience the same problem with our Facstar plus, who is still working
under HP computer control and lysis II software.  It is a shame that good
working 9 year -old machinery could get handicapped by this commercial
decision to withdraw  printer cartridges from the market!  I will also send
this message to the Becton Dickinson (European) headquarters: maybe if they
receive enough complaints they will want to think about solutions.

Best Regards and sorry that I can't be of further help,
Dirk
