Re: [Digital BW] PK or MK on QUAD 2200?

2005-02-17 by Steve Kale

Well you don't need to trash/reinstall printers.  Add the printers with the
MK cartridge in and then rename them to denote MK.  Put in the PK cartridge
and add the printer(s) again, this time changing the name(s) to denote PK.
Then select the printer depending on what cartridge is installed.

MK will rub off RC paper and give a very low dMax.
