Re: [Digital BW] UltraChrome Fade test

2002-09-20 by Robert Morrison

Shouldn't be a problem...just don't mix the inks in a cart of bottle. I
don't think that head capping cross contamination is a serious threat for
any of these systems.  I've recently used three different blacks in tests
and haven't had any problem.  When you get into problems is when you
actually mix inks in the lines that supply the head. As mentioned
previously, I will be using the ultrachrome black with the piezotones in a
test soon.
