First B&W MIS print on R220 very slow

2006-04-05 by mimimike43

Firstly,  I would like to thank Paul for all of his assistance in 
getting me to this point.

Set up of the printer and inks was very simple.  The only thing that 
would have been helpful was a color key on the MIS ink cartridges to 
help you match the respective cartridge to the stall.  I only know 
what black and yellow look like.

I used Paul's .icc profile for Epson Premium Glossy paper.  Followed 
Paul's recommended driver settings and printed with Qimage.

The final print is georgeous.  Very professional looking on the PGPP. 
This is my first time using Epson paper, and pigment inks for that 
matter.  The only thing is, it felt like a year and a day before the 
printer finally spat out this baby 4x6.  Actually, it had to take all 
of 5 minutes to print.  Is this extremely slow print time normal? I 
used Paul's recommended setting of RPM.  



Feedback much appreciated

Mike
