Canon Pro 10s user. I'm performing one every couple of days and just wondering which is more wasteful - they both seem to achieve the same result of keeping nozzles from drying out. Thanks

The nozzle check will use less ink but the half page purge is more useful for preventing clogs: the nozzle check only fires each nozzle once which may not be enough "exercise" to keep them free flowing.

Regards,
Mike
