Default bleeding brakes

hi, now i did search but nothing really answered my question.

now i know that if i change my calipers and drain all the fluid out then i need to bleed all four calipers,

but what if i clamped the lines so only small amounts off fluid were lost would i just need to bleed the fronts or still do all four?

hope this makes sense

cheers

edit:96 uk turbo.

worth doing all four
......easch wheel in turn, open the bleed nipple and then
...do nowt!
wait until the fluid stops sputing and just comes out as a steady flow, then
nip up the nipple and go to next wheel

easy
