Digital BW, The Print

I won't try to suggest which inkset would be best, or even which 
method of utilization would be best. What I will tell you is that it 
would be best if you can get the printer flushed with cleaning fluid 
before it is shipped. This will reduce the likelyhood that there will 
be a clog formed during the shipping. MIS, WeInk, Inkjetcolorsystems 
all have cleaning carts for that printer. I would suggest running the 
cleaning fluid until there is (reltively) no color on a printed page. 
Then you can either drain the printer, or leave it for shipping. I 
would also suggest that you use (or buy) the proper shipping 
container!!! This will be extremely important if using a common 
freight carrier.

I will also suggest an alternative... The parts for the 7600 are 
expensive compared to parts for the 7500. Heads will run nearly $500 
for the 7600 (one head assembly), and $100 for half of what is needed 
on the 7500 (two head assemblies with 3 heads each). The cost of a 
good used 7500 should be significantly less than the cost of a used 
7600. The difference in quality if you choose a 6 black system like 
the newest Piezography inks will be hard to see. As your first foray 
into a multi black dedicated B/W "large" format printer, the 7500 
would make a good choice.

Lately, for the price difference, you could by a used 9500 (44 
inches) for about the same as the price of a good used 7600. Just 
something to think about.
