Digital BW, The Print

It is good to have more alternatives. The free competition will lead to some
better solutions. In this sense obsolete is probably a great thing.

Soon HP will come out another and better solution for B&W, and Canon could
be in the race too.

If Epson K3 is better and easier than MIS right now, for its own survival
MIS has to come out a better solution or it will be the history.

One thing MIS can do is to come out a new set of inks and cartridges for
Epson K3 printers. Better and cheaper. Refillable cartridges. CFS.

How about 8 or 9 B&W inks with different shades?  Make one ink working on
both Matt and Glossy paper?

Many many things can be improved or invented in this field.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Will we be obsolete?


  I was reading a forum on the R2400. Someone was speculating that with
  the new imporved B&W available on that printer, that third party inks
  would soon become obsolete. My knee jerk reaction was that this is a
  real possibility. Then I thought further. Even if Epson optomizes the
  system to make really great prints on their paper, I don't see them
  ever fine tuning it to all the different fine art papers out there,
  and since there will more than likely always be a demand for the
  ability to use a variety of papers, we will prbably need the third
  party inks to go with them.
