RE: [Digital BW] Re: Getting started -- Cone or MIS? (LONG)

Nij,

I am an ex Lyson SG user. Excellent support from supplier but experienced
clogs and could not obtain a smooth greyscale transient with the supplied
profile for the 1160 (Lyson branded papers). I could not come to terms with
the metamerism.

I experienced clogs with Cone inks using cartridges but the problem
evaporated when changing over to CIS.

  So... just to open up that discussion... are there any Lyson Small Gamut
  users on this list? Experiences?
