Re: Epson 1430 and CIS for B&W

2013-01-29 by Joseph Meyerson

I just picked up a 1430 on rebate, and before I open it up, I want to know
what my options are. I'd like to go CIS for cost and because I have bad
hand control these days, so less cartridge switching, etc. the better.  I
have oodles of b&w negs from 60's and 70's onwards on pan-x, H&W, Rodinal,
etc. I'm scanning in...

What are my options for ink, pigment, and glossy as well as matte? I also
should note that there are periods I might not print for 2-3 weeks, so if
that is a deal breaker for pigment, so be it.

(p.s.: Willing to spray overcoat if need be.)

Thanks all:
