Right, that kinda has me leaning toward leaving out the K2 for that
printer...
Besides, even the K3 is probably darker than the dark gray in the quad
sets, so the K3 to K transition should be easy enough. Sometimes I
think the quad sets are all too dark anyway, the dark gray is
generally jammed right up against K.
Conversely, If Roy sees no dots with his K6 without the lightest,
there's a reliable answer. The above is all theory.
The only K6 prints I've seen were custom mixed/diluted.
Also, the printers I know with 7000/9000s using the non-K7 piezotone
sets have no ink problems. For a 7000 I wouldn't make ink delivery or
performance too much of a deciding factor. Newer model? Then I'd
factor it in to my decision, but not too highly.
