Epson C86, MIS BO Beginner

2005-06-15 by Walter George

Dear Members,

Have been researching the digital B&W printing options, and it seems 
the C86 and MIS BO would be a good start from all your suggestions.The 
game plan is to install the one Eboni cartridge and the three Epson 
color cartridges  to start. I have back up cartridges of both to avoid 
running dry.

The part I am a little confused about now is how to setup PS CS2 for 
B&W printing. Just knowing the basic settings would be a big help, and 
one could experiment from there. I just finished getting my 890 to 
print color decently using Ian Lyons matte paper icc profile and the 
printer driver turned off, so I have a good idea of the different 
possible settings. I read Clayton's papers on BO and I am not sure it 
covers all the basic CS2 settings. Then if you want to adjust things in 
PS, what do people recommend if using BO? I realize that with the MIS 
EZQuadtones, the idea is to just print, and things are not setup to 
make adjustments.Thank you.
