Carl,

It is for an Epson 9000 so 2200 carts don't get me there. On the
9000 I have a 7 inkline CIS now for the 6 heads, I can switch
between the matte black and the photo black. The LM channel with
the light toner isn't used in the QTR choices so that could
become sepia channel.

On the MIS pages below the Ultratone VM set pricelist there's the
availability of sepia ink mentioned. In bulk I presume. I have
however some pints of the MIS 7600 CcMmYK ink here and it will
not be a problem to mix a sepia toner in the same fashion as the
blue toner. I had to mix an LC identical Ultratone already with
the other Ultratones as an emergency solution because the LC
bottle went into the waste bottle. I have 20 years of silkscreen
ink mixing experience and that helps (+ a densitometer + a
spectrometer). As I understand it now, the sepia as delivered by
MIS isn't to everyone's taste.
