Re: [Digital BW] Re: Glossy Carbon Variable Tone inkset

2016-03-28 by Paul Roark

Glossy carbon can print on matte paper. I anticipate Eboni in the MK position in many printers and PK in the C position if there is not a switchable K position. So, the target is a somewhat universal carbon printer setup.

It's too early to say where my tests take me. My first step is to get the 1100 running well.

Paul, I'm looking forward to your results with the glossy inkset. There are a lot of great glossy and semi-gloss paper I'd love to use.


Do you think this ink will be interchangeable with the matte ink in the same printer? That is, when I need to print glossy, could I just replace the matte ink carts with their glossy counterparts, with perhaps a flushing cycle or two, or would one need to keep two separate printers? This would be for something like the 1430, where there are no ink lines.
