Re: R220 Ink Change / Cleaning?

2006-08-25 by Clayton Jones

Hello Antoine and Paul,

When I swapped out the original color carts for R2 I didn't do
anything special.  The normal cleaning cycle was all it needed.  I
have never put the color carts back in, so I can't say whether the
reverse would be the same.  I guess you'll just have to try and see.

As for using Eboni with the dye colors, I haven't tried that, but my
guess is that it would not work well, for possibly two reasons: 1)
mixing pigment and dye, and 2) Eboni is very different in color and
probably would mess up the darker colors.  If you want to do color and
BW you might consider putting MIS color pigments in it (if they make
some, if not, you might have to use QTR to make it work).  If you want
the dye colors, then having two printers might be the way to go.


Regards,
Clayton
