Epson r800/1800 Mis PK in MK position, is it possible?

2011-01-06 by joaohenriques1

Hi everyone,

A reader for a number of years of this very helpful group, i start by thanking all the contributors, but mostly Paul Roark for all the knowledge he has been so kind to share here.

I tried the 3 inks (Mk, PK and gloss) approach in my epson r800 but there were a load of problems, mostly connectd with the excess of ink hitting the paper.

I can print nice proofs in B&W or color with just the MK cart. But now i'm left with other full carts that i can't seem to use on Mk position, or can i?

I already eassayed PK but it's not the same black.

Any toughts?

Joao
