George, The C84 takes the MIS "Easy B&W" carts. They are not UT2 carts. The tone is monotone. You can only change the tones by putting in a different mix of neutral or carbon carts. (The C84 carts are all separate, like the 2200.) You'll bet nice prints, but the 890 & 1280 with UT2 is a more flexible approach for those who are B&W enthusiasts. See the new MIS B&W page at http://www.inksupply.com/index.cfm?source=html/qn.html. This is still under construction and the C84 may not even be ready to go.

I just went out and bought a new C84 (if I like the results, then I'll get a 1280) and want to purchase some UT2 prefilled carts to start. I need to know which UT2 carts to purchase for the C84. I'm looking for intense b&w. I understand I don't need any curves, right? Can I just play with the sliders for warmer and richer tones? I've been using Epson HW matte and Premium Luster, can I still use these? Will I be rid of color casting and metamerism forever? Thanks for your help.
