Re: [Digital BW] Epson Lustre

2005-01-26 by Roy Zartarian

Well, to tell you the truth, I started using the MIS inks in the 2200 
cartridges because shortly after I bought a set of 4 ounce UT-2 refills 
for my 1280, the print head died. And I didn't want to let $80 worth of 
ink go to waste.

I'm blending the QTR cool & warm profiles at 90-10 and find the color 
approximates that produced by the 1280 on Smooth Pearl with the QTR 
neutral profile.  When I get some time, I do plan on experimenting a 
bit to see if I can produce something cooler.  But that's a project for 
another day.
