RE: [Digital BW] Re: R1800 "pure carbon" approach?

I was really thinking of clearing the Glop channel of the Eboni which I
suspect would use lots of Glop!  Whether the inks are Epson or MIS will have
little impact on this.

  David,

  So you're saying that swapping the MIS MK and Epson PK in the 1800
  would likely cause more problems and waste more ink than swapping the
  MIS MK and MIS PK (assuming I use K4 inks) in the 2400?

  I guess one other advantage of the 1800 that I forgot to mention is
  that it uses less ink for B&W prints, and since no color is used I
  assume the cartridges would last longer overall than the 2400.
