Digital BW, The Print

>But there must be folks who have tried the MIS Eboni cartridge

There are a few of us around.


>How does the ink compare upon printing

Eboni is less warm than Matte Black, with similar Dmax.  It seems to
work well with the UC inks for color printing.


>and how does the software react?  

When you make the first print with Eboni it pops up a window saying
this isn't epson ink, are you sure you want to continue using it.  You
say yes and it makes the print and never asks you again (until the
next time you replace a cart).


>Does it still give you a report on ink levels?  

Yes.



I use a 2200 with Eboni for Black Only printing.  See my articles on
it for details (link below) if you're interested in that.
