You don't have to worry about this. The printer flushes all channels
when it thinks it needs to. While cleaning (whether manual or automagic)
ink is drained from all channels (the big 11880 is an exception, it can
drain from only two channels). I don't think the 3800 is an exception here.

Have a look at
http://www.americaninkjetsystems.com/inkjet_printer_maintenance.html

There is a lot of useful information about printer maintenance and
cleaning and a lot more. I have no relation to this site.
