          I've worked with numbers of carbon channels from 1 to 6. There is such a
thing as too many here. I'd peg 4 as the optimum. 3 Eboni channels prints
better than 6 channels and visually indistinguishable from 4 channels.

Thus, with 8 channels available, the 1800 can support dual channels of
excellent printing.

One option that uses this is full color printing as well as the Eboni 100%
carbon printing. For those who do full color and also want what is probably
the most stable and lightfast digital B&W system we have, the 1800 is a very
interesting alternative. In this alternative, all the colors are OEM or MIS
alternatives. The color prints with the usual Epson driver workflow. I did
a few color prints and they were excellent. The Eboni is in the MK, PK, and
Glop channels. They are controlled by QTR. Only matte paper can be printed
this way.

A second option that will appeal to those who would rather have a glossy B&W
alternative, the 1800 can support a separate EZ-N or other B&W printing
inkset. I may put an EZ-N set with PK in my 1800 next (as well as, of
course, the Eboni channels for carbon matte printing). I want the MIS PK
there to be able to warm the Eboni in any case.

At any rate, this 8-channel, 1.5 pl R800/1800 printing platform appears to
give us the capability of running dual inksets. I think this is rather
cool.
