I have. And had no problem with the bisqued or glazed ware.
Good luck

I've done both quite often with no indication of bisque being ruined.

I have recently become interested in refiring some of my glazed ware a
second time at cone 06. (The first glaze firing is at cone 6.). =20
Would it be OK for me to include this ware in with my bisque load? Or
must they be fired separately? I was under the impression that gasses
from the glazed ware will ruin the bisque, but I want to find out more
about it.
In the same vein, is it OK to fire a low-fire glaze load along with a
bisque? =20
Anyone done either of these things, and with what results?

Most kilns have a temperature gradient from bottom, cool, to top, hot.
I put my bisque in the bottom, when for any reason I am not once firing, and
the glaze in the top.
If I want a pot to be especially softly bisqued, so as to take up more
glaze, then it is in the bottom.
But sometimes strength and a closer texture are more important; then it goes
in the top.
I have not had any real problems from this procedure, yet. Bisque, Glaze and
Once Fired; all go in the same kiln and the same time. Just think about
temperature when setting.

Lois,
I've re-fired glazed ware at bisque temps, and fired low-fire ware with
fresh glazes along with bisque loads and it's worked just fine for me.

my experience is different.
i fire both, if the glaze is of black, blue, green, ... i don't see any
mal-effect on glazed pieces (though i place them at the lower shelves).
i fire glazed pieces separately if the glaze is of red, orange, purple, ...
the color dissipates in firing because of steam (my guess). i get white from
red glaze. (sorry, i haven't studied what the differences are between these
two groups of colorants)

Hi,
My base 04 mat glaze contains zinc oxide and wrinkles up if there is a lot
of bisque in the same load. According to Parmalee (only one who mentions
this flaw), zinc reacts with sulfur-containing gases released by the
bisqueware

At the arts center here, low fire glazed ware is routinely fired in a bisque
load along with greenware. Once in awhile I've seen a little shadowing on
some of the bisque which may have been from being set too close to a glazed
piece, but I'm not sure. Putting glazed ware and greenware on different
shelves would probably eliminate any risk.

Yes - and the reason is - zinc oxide is easily reduced - is changed to the
metal which boils off. Probably the reason zinc has a bad reputation for
pinholing. Some is lost and the glaze is stiffer because of that.
