One is nearly brand new but they will both need a good cleaning.
The older one probably had regular black ink fed through its PGBK line.
They can be yours for shipping and handling from Japan.
My MP-610 is beyond repair :( I have 500cc tanks of refill ink for all colors, but they are between 2-5 years old. Are they too old to consider reselling on an auction site?

So my MP610's PGBK head seems to be half fried. I can still get by on the color tanks, and can print composite black by changing text to 'near' black in most applications.
I do a lot of B&W printing for ads and handouts, and appreciate good black quality, which I definitely have not gotten...
My Pixma MP610 suddenly stopped printing while the print head is moving in one direction. The result is a page of 1-inch printing, 1-inch blank, repeat until bottom.
I have refilled my own ink tanks since purchasing the printer in 2006, and have had no problems until recently. I just refilled...
