Re: Creating Paper/Ink database?

2001-09-03 by Mark Tucker

Everyone,

I put up four new databases in the DATABASE section of this 
site. They're designed to start with the inkset that a person has 
installed, ie. quadtones, six-color, piezo, etc. You can click on 
that particular database and add New Records; if you've had 
success with a certain paper, with any one of these different 
inksets, just fill out the simple form and upload it.

This will hopefully assist people in sorting out which papers go 
best with their existing inkset. Or, if you're considering switching 
inksets, it could point you in the direction of the best papers for 
those new inks.

Also, if there are suggestions on a better approach to this, or for 
alterations in the current system, just let me know. We can also 
add other databases as needed in the future, up to ten total.
