Re: [Digital BW] Epson 2200- need to print black and white..

2004-02-07 by flyfishingusa2002

Today I received in the mail a number of BO prints ( I joined the BO 
print exchange) I can only say if you saw them you would be a total 
convert to BO printing. I personally don't see the need for any other 
ink than black! I have not had time to see which ink was used on all 
of them, but Eboni seems to stand out. I refilled one of my matt 
black 2200 carts so it was really cheap to do.
