I seem to remember from somewhere that MIS cleaning fluid is a 50:50 
mix of water and UC base. Anyway that's what I'm using in the unused 
channel of my 7600 and it works like a charm. Works great for getting 
rid of clogs too by the way. 
To flush, something like QTR that lets you set up which channel is 
firing makes it very easy. Set up an appropriate profile and print 
enough to ensure that all ink is gone from those channel.
