Re: MIS K4 all colors – Epson K3 Microencapsulation – present workableness of MI

I guess what you wanted to do was just buy the extra K4 LLK ink + your 
existing MIS Pro inks for use in your 2400. Save you having two sets of 
inks. I cannot see why it shouldn't work providing you make a custom 
profile. I guess most people who buy from MIS just want an exact 
replacement ink so they can use generic Epson profiles. Maybe thats why 
they told you it wouldn't work. I think you should press them further. 
I find it hard to believe that PK MIS Pro ink is different to PK K4 
ink. I bet Eboni ink is the same in both ink sets. Maybe the LC/LM are 
different in K4 because they would be formulated to neutralise PK (or 
Eboni),LK and LLK for B&W work. However I'm just guessing. 

Lets us know if you find out anymore.

Peter.
