Re: Mixing Piezography with MIS EB-6 inks

2008-11-19 by pr_roark

The safe route is to always use cleaning carts between inks, and they 
are handy things to have around.  MIS is very concerned, in 
particular, about putting Eboni-6 in a printer that has had 
UltraChrome in it -- unless cleaning carts have been used.  So, there 
most be some potential for trouble with other inksets.

So, bottom line, I recommend cleaning carts (even though I'm guilty 
of ingoring my own recommendations sometimes).
