Re: [Digital BW] Re: Warm carbon, questions for Paul

2011-11-21 by David Kachel

>>> Are you going to be printing matte or glossy?

Matte only.

If all you're interested in is the warmest carbon images, then you could
fill all of the positions with the MIS carbon.

Just got off the phone with MIS. They tell me that the inks found on this
page: http://www.inksupply.com/eb6.cfm

Šare all exactly the same thing you refer to as "MIS carbon" inks? Is that
correct? So do I correctly assume that K, PK LK and LLK are all something
else?


You might consider modeling the all warm carbon printer after the UT14 --
Eboni in K, PK in both M and C, LK in both LM and LC, and then LLK in Y.

Still confused. Are those all "MIS carbon" inks you refer to above? That is,
are K, PK LK and LLK synonyms for "MIS carbon"? Or are these different inks
from the MIS carbon you recommended above? Are there any dyes mixed into
those inks if they are not the same?

Can you tell me what inks to order, dilutions to make, printer positions for
the cartridges (Epson 1400), to get met started? I would prefer to dilute
from one stock ink source if that will work, rather than buy already
diluted.
 Thanks.
