Digital BW, The Print

Matt,
Please let us know if you try these inks.
They do sound very interesting.  I am going with UT7 with FS-Y,
because….basically, I found very little information on the MediaStreet
inkset.  I’m viewing this trial with the r200 as a way to learn, and believe
I may move in a different direction ultimately.  With so many people working
with UT7 and variants of it, I figured they might help me find that
direction along the way. The r200 is certainly an inexpensive way to start
exploring!

Best regards,
John Moody

Roy,

This new ink set is very intriguing.  I'm using the C86/EZ combo now,
and get good results, but I tire of changing cartridges for
photo/matte and for toning.  These sound like they'd eliminate that
annoyance.

If you wouldn't mind, a couple questions.  First, the site mentions a
gloss optimizer that can be applied via "software control".  Where
does this gloss optimizer reside in a 6-position printer like the
R200?

Also, do you know if profiles will be forthcoming for more non-
mediastreet papers?

Thanks for any input.

Matt
