Re: Bronzing, Glop, New inks [was QTR/R1800 matte vs glossy dottiness (Question

2005-07-19 by Nick H. Nugent

Hi Paul,

Excellent. I'm assuming you will also get the additional dmax just
like GLOP now? I hope the inksets for the 1160 will also be converted.
Though I'm making less mistakes with GLOP (vs. spray coating, etc.) I
still occasionally mess up during the GLOP phase, ie. use a wrong
image to apply it. 

Thanks for the heads up and be sure to let us know when MIS has these
available.
