I don't know if these are the same carts used by the ThinkJet/QuietJet printers (which is what I have). I've noticed that when these carts stop printing, the bladders are still about half-full. Is this the way it's supposed to be? It seems like such a waste - there should be something that could be done. (A co-worker suggested saving 'empty' carts, then combining 2-in-1 to create a full cart).
