Re: anyone have working BO on 2400?

Clayton, thanks again for your advice.  I think I'll order some Eboni
and give it a try with QTR on the free trial, and if that doesn't work
out at I can try to get an R200 or 220 and put the ink in there.

Sounds like a smart strategy.  I'll have to keep that in mind.

Have you considered refilling the 2400 from 4800 carts?  

I'll be sure to get hold of some Kayenta.
