Re: [Digital BW] help me "catch up" - an old 1160 & sepia>neutral

2004-02-23 by bgs

I can only say this. I still use the 1160 and the UT CFS. The prints can be
beautiful if you're into the image and not the other stuff. I sold 8 prints
in a 2 month period (unframed and not matted)......all in 3 figures. Paul
has done a magnificent job as has MIS. I have a 1280 which I will eventually
put into B/W but I see no reason to do it yet. Keep the overhead down!

I am the type :-)
But......$ shortage dictates that I do the best I can with what I
have....so I will aspire to the smoother 1280 but will order ink (UT)
& carts for the 1160 for now - do you happen to have the specific
ordering info on hand? I admit not to having checked your link
(posted in your last post) yet and remember their site being quite a
maze
