Howdy Alan!

I did the same thing this week since I am out of ink and had one color
cartridge to play with... 
my current frankenstein mix is:
C = MIS VM C
LC = MIS VM LC
M = custom mix toner, eyeballed to match the UT M
LM = custom mix toner, eyeballed to match the UT LM
Y = half VM Y and half UT Y (leftovers basically!)
K = Epson 2000P OEM K

I love to play like this!!!

anyone else like the look of color images printed with the VM or UT
inks? no conversion to grayscale, no curves..!

sometimes it's really cool!

Happy Printing!
Tom
