Digital BW, The Print

MIS published a procedure for switching inksets on the 4000, but I  
don't know if it is applicable for UC to k7.  Should be OK if the UC/ 
k7 inks are compatible.  You could also just do purge prints until  
the lines/dampers have been flushed.  Does anyone know what the  
volume of ink is in the lines and dampers of the 4000?
