Re: [Digital BW] Over-Inking with NK7 inks and QTR on Epson 2200?

2007-01-15 by Tyler Boley

I've been getting a few reports like this lately, but they rarely show up here-
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/piezography3000/
that would really be one place to post, as well as the QTR group, and here thirdly.
But IJM would be the primary to contact, particularly if it's a trend.
