Digital BW, The Print

Martin,

We just need verification that the inks go 
through the new printers.  The problem 
printer I have encountered is the 1160 with 
the split drop technology.  

Dan Burkholder just ran the Spectratones 
through the 980 which workd out fine on 
ilford paper, we are doing a little 
developmental work together for contact 
printing as I've already had success with 
cyanotype and gumbichrome with some 
other artists using the Spectratones and the 
3000 with PressReady and ilford 
transparency film (now discontinued and 
I've switched to Oce transparency film which 
takes more Spectratone ink then the pictorico 
transparency film.)

I have to update the website on all of the 
bazillion epson printers, but the 3000/1520/
800 and the 1200 like line are good to go.

Anyone know of a place were all of the 
epson models are listed with their printhead 
specs?  I lost track about 1.5 years ago.  

The new Epson Swellable Polymer papers 
also have the potential to be super durable 
since the Ilford papers are also Swellable 
Polymer media.  Now I just wonder where 
epson got the idea from?  Hmmmmm.

Thanks,

Allen,

And I thought I was getting crowded out of 
my work space! (Of course 
if you need some place to store some of 
those printers.....)

I'm glad the workflow is the same. I was 
looking to see what the 
lowest cost path might be for people to give 
your inks a try.

I ran across the Brightcube paper on their 
retail site:

Well you are succeeding in getting me more 
interested.

Thanks,
Martin
