Re: [Digital BW] 1280 overspray

2002-01-04 by Daniel Perez

David,  glad to hear it's getting better.  Be sure to
push the CIS cart back in *firmly*. "with as much
force as it takes to lift the printer from one corner"
as stated by NMC support. You might also want to let
it sit afterwards for a while incase any air got in.

I haven't tried printing b&w with the MIS pigs.  I
have a dedicated 1280 w/ MIS VM inks (and Paul's
curves) for b&w printing.  Which, by the way, makes
great prints. 

I'm also going to have Tobie create a profile for the
MIS pigs but I'm still trying to pick a paper  ..not
getting great results w/ Museo.  I've got a post
comming up about that soon.

  -Daniel
