The 1400 uses Claria ink, which is dye based. Most folks use JPSS with pigment inks. Although there are some here who uses Claria with that paper.

Do a search at the top of the page on 'claria' for posts.

The stock ink works OK. The big thing is cost, if and when you start printing very much. If you are printing much, a bulk ink system pays for itself in a very short time.
