Re: [Digital BW] Ink mixing - MIS ut eboni with epson dye

2004-06-06 by kalooo12000

Hopefully I will not be swapping back and forth between bw and dye,
but having just bought a new 1160 I do not want to clog it up by 
doing the wrong thing.

Anyone else run eboni straight after epson dyes without problems?

Many thanks for the input.
