1160 Printer Driver Controls & Other Puzzlements

2002-01-14 by JimD

I've been trying the MIS FS inks using the Woolf workflow.
Thus far, I'm getting much better results than I got with the
older MIS quads and the Brandin workflow.

Here's one of my puzzlements:
The illustration on the MIS www site for the Woolf flow
http://www.inksupply.com/index.cfm?source=html/workflow_woolf2.html
shows a screen shot of the 1160 driver. In that illustration
there is box to set gamma for the printer.

Does the 1160 driver (Wintel) have a gamma setting?

Mine doesn't.
Next I'm going to try the Paul Roark VM workflow.
One thing's for sure I think I'm going to have to have a
CIS. Getting this stuff dialed in is taking me a fair
amount of testing. I'm starting to think my 1160 is
a bit sketchy as I've had pretty frequent but clearable
clogs for almost all of the bw stuff I've done with it.
I use a 1270 and Epson OEM materials and can recall only
one clog in over two years of use.

Are clogs common with the BW materials?

Cheers,
JimD
