Digital BW, The Print

Hello John,

Wouldn't it be possible to create a small test image that would print
a pure patch of each ink?  That ought to show some banding if there's
a clogged nozzle.  

Or maybe Roy could create a printer instruction in QTR that would do a
real nozzle test pattern...just a thought.


>The check was good. very big grin.

One of the nice things about K3 inks.  I'm 16 months now with a 2400
and have had one minor clog after sitting unused nearly 3 weeks.  I
keep it on all the time and there are very few full cleaning cycles.

Regards,
Clayton
