Digital BW, The Print

No flushing is required when Eboni and PK are interchanged.

I don't know if the pre-loaded carts are the poppet valve type.  If not,
they can take a fair number of cleaning cycles to get going. 

With the new, easy-refill, poppet-valve carts, I have interchanged blacks
and find one cleaning is needed if it's been a while since the last change.

I'm now thinking that to avoid dried ink in the cart outlets, it may be a
good idea to squirt some water at the outlet of the cart just taken out to
wash the exterior ink off.  I'm using a syringe with water in it to do this.
I then tape the outlet.

If you have not explored the convenience and lower ink costs of these new
carts with bulk ink, you might want to check it out.  I'm easily and cheaply
doing B&W & color, matte and glossy with a single C86.  I even have
different types of PK available.  I've pulled UC PK out of a 7600 cart for
use with Epson Premium papers, where it has a significant dmax advantage.  I
have a row of half-used carts next to the printer.  As needed I just squirt
a little more ink into the top of the cart and re-set the chip. (I could
use, however, a good profile for the MIS 7600 color pigs I'm using.)

Subject: [Digital BW] MIS EZ carts interchangable?





I just ordered a set of EZN carts for a C86 that I will be purchasing 
shortly.

I ordered the Eboni and the MIS Photo black.

Am I correct in assuming I can interchange these two black inks with 
out flushing the system?

Thanks,
Scott
