Unlike the Epson 3800 (which has eight print heads but nine cart slots so it can, and will, switch between PK and MK automatically), the Epson 4800, 7800, and 9800 models have eight print heads and eight cart slots. So in order to swtch black inks, you must pull and swap the black ink cartridges manually. As a consequence, it is possible to select a paper and use the "wrong" black ink with it.
