Tony, re: your comment about "clearing air in lines" ...sounds like 
you were using something other than Epson OEM pigments in your 4000s?
If so, clogs and head problems would be expected.

I'll be interested to hear your further adventures with that Canon
because it sounds good in other reports and 4800 isn't tempting.
