I noticed the dots tonight on an image I was working on & hoped I could reduce them. I cant consider another printer or even piezo software - $ are a big issue now. I want to maximize what I have. So only if changing the inkset will help will I be able to consider that. Perhaps weaning my CFS off the Sepia>Neutral inkset - but which inks would I replace them with ? With this set I Mostly use the Neutral curve anyway, & occasionally the Med Warm. Frank
