Re: [Digital BW] Piezography Clogging Issues

2002-01-27 by Michael Kravit

I have thought very hard about posting this message, but in a effort to share my information in a positive and accurate manner here goes.

It has been said by a certain group that there are only about 30 very vocal individuals having clogging, greenies, and various outher issues with Piezo inks. Well folks, this week I attended FotoFusion in Delray Beach, Florida. I heard story after story of clogged printers, green prints, damaged printers, CIS units not working with these inks, etc. So I started to take count the stories. ALl I will say is that the number of people that have had problems or know "someone" that has problems is mind boggling. I guess that when stating that there are only 30 people with problems, the power of 3 was left off.

One think that I was told, and this is only third party info, is that Epson is working on 8 and 16 color printers that will be capable of producing pigmented neutral grayscale images with no color cast, shift, or crossover. Oh, won't life be grand! ;-)
