Thanks, Paul for the quick feedback, as usual. Now that I know the ink is the same, do I now use the UT7 you've written to configure the printer? And, I've printed out some of the info on your website; but, can you direct me to your recommended link so I'll get it right. Also, what considerations should I give to using QTR, which I do plan to use to print through?
