Digital BW, The Print

Yes, flush the lines first, preferably with Jon's Piezoflush. The 3800's cartridges are fixed with tubes leading to the print head. Although these are shorter than the ones in either a 4800 or a 7800 they are still long enough to hold quite a quantity of ink. You will waste a lot of your new Piezo ink if you try to use that for flushing and may suffer from some unnecessary clogs!

Assuming no ink clogs at present with the regular inks--- I have purchased a set of empty cartridges and a set of peiziography inks.  My main question is whether it is better to flush the lines first with the peizoflush solution or should I simply install the piezigraphy ink set with the new cartridges and let these inks flush out the old inks with a few test prints.
