The third party pigment inks seem to cause more build up than the Epson 
inks, or at least the "thicker" pigments that I've been using. 
Sometimes I find a buildup on the flush box - right which is just ink 
stuck to itself to form a large glob, same happens to the cleaner, but 
I normally keep that wiped off more often.
