Re: [Digital BW] New start with 1500W/1430 - 3-MK & Eboni-4

2013-03-08 by bobtail75

The 1500W/1430 is working beautifully with the 3MK setup. New machine so kept supplied inks unused and used refillable carts from Marrutt.co.uk, with their bulk ink in the Y,LC,LM positions (Eboni in the others) for now. When my new supply arrives from MIS I will try the Carbon-6 option & compare results.
I have not adjusted the curve at all yet,but using your 3MK-PA-Premier Mat profile, on Hahnemuhle Cotton Rag, the result is impressive.
Thanks again,
chris.
