I've also heard that new Epson printers have some type of fluid in the heads
to preserve them that may not clean out as well with non-Epson inks.  Also,
making sure the printer works well with OEM inks may make warranty claims
easier.

So, I guess I'd follow the recommendations to test the printer first with
the OEM Epson inks.  However, I have no special knowledge here.

I'm told that there will not be enough dye ink in a desktop printer head to
cause serious problems with the new Eboni black.  MIS says that several
cleaning cycles will clear any initial clogging that might happen.  Again,
however, I have no special information or experience here.  MIS, however,
seems to be concerned mostly with CISs and large format printers that have a
lot of the old ink in them when inks are changed.
