Digital BW, The Print

The K6 ink set sounds like good advise. I definitely want my printer to be as trouble free as possible. Thanks for the advice.

With this setup, you don't have to do the MP/PK swap at all, which makes dealing with the issues that Jeff experienced a heck of a lot simpler and less wasteful of ink.

If you've had colour in there for some time, it's amazing how long the dampers will release small amounts of yellow.
