Digital BW, The Print

printing often helps.  especially with the MIS double black which congeals if left to sit, 
which means to "stir" the bottle now and then.  I have seen several inch long "snakes" of it 
finally be forced back out of the supply tube into the bottle.  

and of course the old reliable, use Epson inks.  Have you seen any significant number of 
posts on clogs with Ep inks?  realizing that you are talking a 1200, I wonder if one could 
use Ultrachrome inks in it somehow?  no idea really

and if you are happy with the HP which I presume is dyes, why not just use the Epson 
dyes?  consider all the posts on here from the techno nuts and penny pinchers (LIKE ME, 
don't take offense) with plugged jets, color casts, etc.
