I print a fair amount of color with an Epson 2200 using the Eboni black ink
in place of the Epson matte or photo black. It looks fine, though I don't
take my color work as seriously as black and white so my standards for it
probably aren't as high as for black and white. A really serious color
printer might find some fault with the Eboni black in color printing but it
looks fine to me.

Hello Michel,

I don't use a 4000 but I'm pretty sure the Matte Black is the one
that's replaced with Eboni, and then you would choose Enhanced Matte
paper, I think.  Carl Schofield knows, so maybe he'll see this and
jump in here...


>Can I keep the Epson UT for the other cartridges?

You mean UC color inks?  Again, I don't know about the 4000 for sure,
but I think so.  I used Eboni with the UC colors for a long time in my
2200 and it seemed to work fine for color prints (although I only did
a few tests, I hardly ever print color).

Clayton
