Re: Carbon-6 for eight-color-printer (R2880)

2011-03-12 by Gerd

Hello Michael, Paul and Philip!

Thank you very much for your tips and your response. And after reading Paul's pdf-files I know now how to setup a 8-colour-printer.

Well, just to let you know: I print now for about 1 1/2 years very content with Paul's first C-6 self-mixed-inks and a dedicated R220. But now I want to upgrade to A3 and I'm checking the options. I want to continue with the open-source-inks.

I still have some questions regarding the mixing of the base (I already posted regarding Edwal LFN)relating to the droplet-size of the printer. But I will post this in a new thread.
