Re: [Digital BW] MIS Associates Inks Drying Problem

2010-08-24 by Michael King

I am guessing you are using the Eboni black ink when you shouldn't be on
glossy. This will happen if you are using the wrong print driver / approach.
Have you read Paul Roark's article on this printer/ink combo ?
http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/UT14.pdf  Are you sure you are using one of
the glossy printing approaches detailed in this doc? Paul is probably the
best person to help you with this.
