RE: [Digital BW] 1160 MIS Inks - FS + FSN no curves or rip needed?

John,

>Are these ink sets are curve and RIP free?

The FS and FSN are Piezo software compatible and can also be printed with
free curves.  I recommend the new UT-FS or UT-FSN versions of this inkset.
These are state of the art.

>The UT is variable tone with curves?

The original UT (MIS Ultra Tone) inkset was and is an upgrade of the MIS VM
(for "variable mix") inkset.  This variable-tone inkset is printed with free
Photoshop (or Picture Window) image adjustment curves.  

The family of UT inks has now expanded to the UT2 (1280), UT7 (2200 & 7600),
and UT-FS and UT-FSN (1160 & 3000), and C82 & C84 EZ inks.  These are all
based on the MIS Ultra Chrome clone inks.  It's a whole family of inks.

Hope this helps.
