RE: [Digital BW] Should I run epson inks through new printer?

2003-03-04 by Paul Roark

Jeff,

Though I have no special information or experience with it, I'd run the
Epson inks through the printer first to be sure everything is working and
clean out the alleged substances that are in new heads.  I think the Epson
carts seal up nicely after use, so keep them for the future.

  Sorry, I know I've read some opinions on this but can't find it
  again.

  Is it necessary to run color Epson carts through a new 1280
  before (in my case) the MIS VM set?

  I understand it may be easier to repair/replace if there is no trace
  of 3rd party inks.

  But,

  I also recall something being said about solvents in Epson inks
  that are needed when first installing?

  Thanks,

  Jeff
