Switch out C82 BW & Color Carts?

Switch out C82 BW & Color Carts?

2004-02-24 by LAJacobs

I want to order the MIS BW inkset for my C82. Is it possible to 
switch out cartridge sets and go back & forth between color & BW? If 
so, is it necessary to plug the cart nozzles & with what?

TIA, Linda J.

Yes, it is possible to switch inksets. Just tape the outlets of the used
carts.  When you install used carts back in the printer, you'll have to do a
few cleaning cycles to get it going again.  Air gets into the outlets.  I
recommend you stay with MIS black, however, instead of putting the Epson
black ink back into the printer.  I believe the Epson black has some dye in
it.

Thanks, Paul - and especially thanks for the above tip about staying 
with the MIS black. I would never have thought to do that. I'm using 
MIS Ultrachrome match for the color set so I'll just leave the black 
from the BW set in...should work fine! What fun I will have!
