Mixing EZ inks?

2005-05-24 by Peter De Smidt

Hi Folks,

Currently, I'm printing with a C86 using Photo Black, EZN, EZN, EZW (in 
the yellow position.) This gives a nice duo-tone, which works well for 
some images.  On the papers I'm using going with all EZN is a little to 
cool, and going with all EZW is too warm. Question, would it be 
advisable to try mixing the EZN and EZW inks in the three color 
positions to get a slightly warm print? Perhaps loading cartridges with 
a 50/50 mix of the neutral and warm inks would accomplish this?

Thanks,
Peter De Smidt
