Paul -

Thank you very much indeed. I have printed out your message and will follow
its instructions as soon as I get home.

I very much hope this works out: the thought of spending the next month
mixing and testing inks makes my skin crawl.

Just to confirm, in case you don't see the other message in which I posted
it, my nozzle checks on the 1160 look like this:

	First row:
	Three panels, all densest black (= K cartridge)

	Second row, L to R:
		Very pale (? = 25%)
		Almost black (? = 75%)
		Medium blue (toner = yellow = 50%).

Is that the correct sequence? If not, then all bets are off and MIS is
going to hear from me real quick...

>Let us know how it goes.

You bet I will. Thanks again,

-- Nick
