Hi Paul Random thought. I am on the verge of running out of UT ink in my CIS for my epson 1200. I am shortly gonna convert my 2200 to my black and white machine. But in the meanwhile i am still messing with my 1200. Anyway I was wondering if it would be difficult to make a 5 tone FS inkset. I like warmer prints and my UT set had too many dots in the 30% to 40% zone. For skin tones it just didn't suit me. I jumped through a zillion hoops to get rid of the dots through QTR and did okay, I made some really nice curves except for those dots. there are also some dots in the deep shadows but they are not as noticeable. I am willing to give up variable toneality for smoothness. Would this be hard for me to do. I would need a "bridge tone between" the two lightest tones and a dark "bridge" between eboni and darkest grey. If its too difficult i am just gonna go back to my UT setup. But i thought this might be interesting to try out. Oh, I am only concerned about matte paper on this printer, my usual is PFA. Thanks for any input. John E
