XP-600/700/800 Ink.

Hi Guys 2 simple questions i hope.

1, I still have some CISS Dye ink leftover from my old Epson P50 that used claria ink too.. Would the Black/Yellow/Magenta/Cyan be ok to use in my XP-700.

2, Pigment ink V's Dye Ink. Will my XP-700 be able to switch between the 2 ink types? IE a CISS Dye Ink setup for Day to day printing then when i want to do a Photo print to frame use a set of Pigment Ink carts then swap back to the CISS Dye set? The only experience i have had in pigment inks was they killed my Epson R285 from head blocks and that the normal heading cleaning solutions are not compatible with pigment ink.

Thank you
D2

hi @doom2

1.) p50 Dye ink would work just fine with the new 6 Color based Epsons 750 and 850 even without profiling but the xp700 would defintely need profiling
2.) the new ink formula for the XP700 change so the new ink have a diffent kind of viscosity they are not that dense as the claria inks. change to pigment ink head troubles are much more expected than with the r285, i use one of my p50 just perfectly with R2400 ocp pigmented inks never needed cleaning or more than one headcleaning to resolve any nozzle issues
