Digital BW, The Print

While MIS is still enjoying the long holidays (they are closed until
Jan. 5), there are people like you trying to help me for MIS
problems. Great thanks!

I'll call MIS on Monday to sort this puzzle out. If my cartridge is
Universal Black, then my last hope is PK and I hope they have a
cartridge version for me to try before I commite to the CFS.

Will let you know what I find out.

Thanks again.
