Actually, the MIS forums will be down until mid July. As for the Pro vs K4, I believe that the you are right about some of the colors being the same and I think that they are the PK and LK. But unlike the MIS Pro, which uses PK, MK(Ebony) and LK, the K4 uses LK, LLK(a lighter light black), and EITHER PK or MK(Ebony). But not both PK and MK. The 2400, and X800, printers(the K3 printers)utilize 3 different blacks, but not the same 3 as the printers that use the MIS Pro. With the K3 printers, you can't print glossy and matte without changing out the PK or the MK. With the 2400, this is easier(and less expensive) than the X800 printers, as there isn't as great amount of ink lost in the change over. That being said, I have had my 4800 running for a little over a week, and all I can say is WOW! I am still using the inks that came with the printer, but when I first got it I looked into the MIS K4 inks, asked all kinds of questions at MIS about the differences with Epson. One difference (if I remember correctly)is that the MIS K4 doesn't have the micro encapsulation as the Epson K3. I've only made one B&W using the ABW, but was very pleased with what I got. I'm waiting on some paper that I just ordered, then I plan to fire up the PrintFixPro and really set this printer up. I've been reading about QTR, and hope to utilize it along with the PFP to get better results with this printer when doing B&W. KeithR
