Digital BW, The Print

Howdy Paul,

I fill the empty 1280 carts and use reset chips from my 2000P Epson
color carts.

I just bought another 2000P and am very excited about Paul Roark's C82
announcement as well!

with the 2000P, the MIS FS inks for the Epson driver work great
without a curve..! I found a couple of Paul's curves for the 1290(mac)
look very nice with the VM and UT inks.

have fun,

Tom De Carlo
