I am pleased to report that, after the 1290s was idle for ten days, 
the UT2 inkset fired up with only one deflecting (colour) nozzle on 
the first nozzle check and this was AOK with the second check, there 
being no cleaning cycle inbetween.  This may be of some comfort to 
those still concerned, as I was, as to clogging with the Eboni.
