I just ran my 7500 with the VM 4.3 inks after it had been sitting for more
than 10 days.  The nozzle checks were perfect and the tones & densities in a
purge pattern and 21-step test strips seem normal.  So, at least a 10 day
sit did not produce the effects you've seen with your setup.  (I'd send a
scan of the purge pattern but my brain-dead [Norton-damaged] system can't
find the scanner.)
