>I just did a quick test by dipping strips into each 4oz bottle of a >quad VM set prior to committing to a CIS. I think it is difficult to tell the dark inks apart with this type of test. It takes a more refined method than just dipping a piece of paper in the ink. >It looks like the K position is a little warm, whereas the C position >is a blacker black. I would think it is unlikely MIS would mis-label the black ink. Do a smell test. The black ink will have a stronger solvent smell than the cyan ink. > Y is obviously the blue toning ink. Correct for quad inksets, but hextone vm inksets use the magenta position for the toner. Paul http://www.PaulRoark.com
