Digital BW, The Print

From my experience printing, or rather, attempting to print BW with 
an R800, I believe the red and blue inks are used.  At least that is 
what I suspicion happens.  I never made any color prints on the 
printer and the red and blue carts ran out of ink just as fast as 
the others.  I don't think it was just cleaning cycles that used all 
the red and blue because I always had my printer powered on except 
when I was traveling.

FWIW, I never got a single decent BW print from the printer so I 
sold it to someone that prints only color.  He loves it.
