Re: [Digital BW] MIS Ink Sample

2001-10-09 by Julian Thomas

The Epson warranty is really good, and microbanding isn't the hallmark of a
properly working printer! If you plan to use any kind of B/W inks, these
will test the printer more than OEM inks, so get the printer right now! I
called Epson tech support and the next day a guy came around with a new
printer.
