Get another for sub work!
:-)

If one fails, then at least you have a spare (once you swap the inks over)

if you are running epson pigment inks, just USE IT ! - make sure you print something every week, ideally every day, don't think you can swap between pigment and sub, F***ing awesome machine!
I bought mine for about 5k at the same time I bought a minilab for 75k - made more money from the 7600 than the minilab over 7 years, ignoring the finance!
If you have the space, get 2 as suggested above

Yeah, I wouldn't advise switching the ink sets as a regular thing, but if you have two, one set for pigment and the other for sublimation,and one fails, and you have a job you need to get done, you can switch them over to get the job done in an emergency kinda thing.
This would be a plus gone for then getting a 9600, as you then still have interchangeable refill carts and maintenance tank. You then just have to decide which is your pigment printer and which is the sublimation printer ... and how long it taks you to decide you want both the be 9600 so upgrade the 7600!

Look at getting a custom ICC profile rather than a generic ink manufacturer one
