If the dyes are old style (not Epson Claria/Noritsu) I'd be sure to flush
everything very well and clean off the parking pad.  We had lots of trouble
converting old 1280s to pigments due to incompatibilities.  I nearly killed
one of my 1400s when HP dyes hit pigments.

On the other hand, the Claria/Noritsu and MIS pigs are compatible.  It
takes 2 cleaning cycles to clear the machine.  I just switched a 4000 from
MIS pigs to Noritsu dyes with no flushing and 2 power cleans.  Works great.
