QTR and 7600

2003-11-21 by sandersm@aol.com

Greetings, all.

Now that I am finally getting good results from my Epson 2200 using QTR, UC 
inks and PremierArt papers, I am thinking that I should start to move my large 
prints from darkroom to inkjet.   My impulse is to get a 7600 (maybe a 9600 if 
I hit Lotto) and set it up with QTR and use the UC inks, as I am with the 
2200.   But I have questions:

1.   Does the 7600 act like the 2200?   Or is it better behaved than the 2200 
when printing b+w prints?   Can it print neutral b+w prints with the Epson 
drivers?

2.   Can one drive the 7600 using QTR?   Are there any issues there that do 
not exist with the 2200?

3.   If I am using the 7600 to print only b+w prints onto buffered cotton 
papers, should I be considering third-party inksets instead of the UC inks?

All thoughts most appreciated.
