I have just been given a little used A3 Ricoh SG 7100 DN (yay!). It currently has the standard Gel jet inks installed.
I am considering using it as a second sublimation printer with cheaper inks than my current sublijet.
So my question is:
1. Can I flush through the Gel jet ink?
2. What is your ink of choice? I will probably mainly be printing for fabric and keeping my A4 with sublijet for ceramics.

Thanks in advance!

I use inkforinkjet.co.uk inks with a custom ICC profile supplied free, and GC41 refill carts off ebay. You can get cleaning fluid off ink supplier, would recommend one head flush with the fluid then refill with inks. You can also buy one time patented carts but they are very expensive in comparison.
