6K+ as 5K+ on 2100/2200 ?

2012-08-28 by Louis de Stoutz

Paul, if I understand you well, 6K+ is your preferred choice at the time 
being for glossy?

I still have a totally unused 2100/2200 which I would like to put into 
work. The 1400 came too fast after I got it, so I now have a 1400 for 
matte B&W (Ebony 6) and another one for color (OEM Claria). I want to 
set up a third printer for glossy B&W, to be used mainly on the 
beautiful baryta papers we now have.

Would the 2100/2200 be appropriate for this task? Could I use the 6K+ 
formula as a 5K+, removing MK since it would only be for glossy papers? 
(Or should the 1400 be used for glossy and the 2100/2200 for matte?)
Has anybody else been doing this?

Many thanks for any tips!

Louis
