I'd flush the system. Eboni-6 uses a base that MIS (or Image Specialists) says is not compatible with UltraChromes and many other similar glossy bases. They've somewhat hedged their statements in the sense that I have not heard specifically that it is not compatible with the UT glossy base. However, I did try Eboni-6 with MIS Glop, and I had some nozzle problems that I felt were not normal. In my view there is a very good chance Eboni-6 and glop are not compatible. MIS glop is in the UT7 inks, including the LK. So, I would flush those lines, and I would not use the UT7 LK with Eboni-6. It is a different and likely incompatible ink. Good luck with the system.
