Re: [Digital BW] MIS-UTFS in Ep9000

2004-11-16 by panopticongallery

Not to ply you with questions but,... is this to imply that there may actualy be a problem 
with the ink, that needs to be worked around? Also, we have forced air heating, could a 
dramatic change in humidity cause the inks to clog more? (from about 43% to 31%) Is 
placing a humidifyer and humidity monitor neer the 9000 a good idea? 
Thank you, thank you.
