I don't see them when I brush it _before_ printing. I think I started doing this after reading on DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint that a number of folks do this, so it's not just my crazy idea! (Although using my sleeve is probably riskier than using your fox tail brush.) Why don't you try it on a sheet and see if it works for you?
