Digital BW, The Print

Thanks, Paul.

I guess I am worried about 2 things regarding agitation.

First of all what happens in the lines? Does pigment settle in the lines requiring power cleaning cycles and so on. I don't mind agitating the carts if that is necessary.

Second if you are away for several days and not able to run the printer is it better to flush the printer and recharge when you get back?

I am wondering whether to get refillable carts and go with UT7+PK or try eboni 6 (or perhaps use HP ink). Is it safe to use eboni 6 in a 7800 without constantly agitating the carts? Would UT7 be safer?
