Why would you consider switching from pigment inks for the Pro10s to dye inks beneficial ? Is it the pricing difference ?

I would see at least these issues

- converting the ink supply from pigment to dye inks - flushing the cartridges and printhead
- the dye inks would most likely give you a much lower longevity than pigment inks
- colors - hue and saturation - are most likely different with dye inks so you would need new icm color profiles for your papers
- and all that again when you switch back again

Don’t waste your time and money on these inks, they are rubbish..

The only place they are worth putting is in the bin.. Sorry for the truth..
Thank you both for the advice.
