Re: Running two inksets on the same machine

2007-05-08 by david627890

Hi Richard

Whilst I believe it is possible if the formulation of the two inksets 
is compatible, for example the K3 inks with the Cone K7, and indeed the 
Cone website suggests this as a solution for printing both B&W and 
colour from the same printer, I suspect you will find that you use a 
lot of ink in flushing out the previous inkset each time you change.  
As a result I am sure that you will very rapidly cover the cost of a 
second printer just in ink use.  

Can you perhaps stack your printers so that you can fit several in the 
same desktop space?  I have mine stacked 3 high - 3800 K3, R1800 Cone 
K7, R220 MIS UT-R2, and apart from juggling USB cables don't have any 
problems.
