Digital BW, The Print

I've not used the UT7 but have used UT-R2 (which I presume are similar) and
the Cone K7 inks.  Of the two I have experienced more clogs with the UT-R2's
than with the K7's, however I have not had real problems with either.  As I
live on the Isle of Wight in the UK where we have a relatively damp/humid
climate (particularly this year!) you may well have different experiences.

  Subject: [Digital BW] 2200 : Piezo Vs UT7 : hassle?


  Using Epson color pigments with 2200 I've had only one clog in several
  years.. three weeks of sitting "on," no problems ...works great for
  B&W with QTR...

  HOWEVER MIS UT7 in another 2200 clogs between sessions after sitting
  "on" or "off" for a week. Usually OK just sitting for a day or two.
  It's easy to unclog (one or two cycles), but is Piezo ink less of a
  clog hassle?

  Does one or the other look better on some typical fine paper, such as HPR?

  Is one or the other easier to control when printing?

  Does one seem to dry faster than the other AFTER printing?

  I have the impression that MIS UT7 dries faster than 2200 Epson
  color...your experience? What about Piezo?
