hi! I have an HP DeskJet 1055 which uses HP 61 cartridges.
I think the black uses pigmented ink.
but I used a "universal" black refill kit (NCR from Walgreens)
which I'm guessing is dye-based since its "universal"
black printing seems fine.
2 questions - with different assumptions:
1. (if I don't refill/print color anymore) can i refill with black pigmented ink? can i get away with just cleaning the printhead or must I fill the whole cartridge up with cleaning solvent (came with my kit)? or am i stuck with black dye-only now for this printer?
2. (if I do want to refill my dye-based color) a. will this dye black still 'work" with color printing?
b. and/or can I go back to pigment black?
Thanks in advance...
