Yes, that's not helped by Epson's nozzle check pattern. When I print nozzle-checks on my Brother printers, they print in nice solid blocks that you can't fail to see.

Finally got around to getting my dye sub interest off the ground and just got a bargain on a used Epson 1400! Anyone tell me if I need to purge the printer before using dye sub inks as its been using pigment ink (and if so how would I do it HELP)?

Next anyone know of a good supplier for a dye sub CISS for the Ep[son 1400? Any help for a newbie would be very much appreciated.

Assuming the 1400 works perfectly with the inks in it at present then you won't need to purge. A couple of head cleans when installing the sublimation inks will be sufficient.

We have the 1400 Artainium EasyFlow systems in stock and if you're quick you can have it tomorrow still!
