Default Replaced calipers, all fluid came out, do I need to bench bleed?

Like the title says, I was replacing my two front calipers, and because I was going to replace the fluid with DOT4, I just let the fluid come out of the lines completely. The master looked empty. Does this mean I have to bench bleed the MC?
