Hello John,

Right now the other five inks are the dyes that came with it, but it
doesn't matter.  When you use BO only the black is used, so the other
inks can be anything.  

I just bought a set of R200 ez-fill carts and a bottle of cleaning
fluid.  I'm going to remove the current 2/3 full dye carts and set
them aside (in case I ever need to send it for repair or swap or sell
it) and replace them with carts full of cleaning fluid.  It just gets
used up in cleaning cycles - why spend money on inks to go down the
drain?  I may at some point put some other ink in one of the positions
to experiment with 2K ideas using QTR, but for now it's strictly a BO
machine.

Regards,
Clayton
