Re: 2KBO, 2-Channel BO Printing For R200/220

Clayton,

This looks fantastic, and I'd love to try it assuming I can fix the leak I'm experiencing in 
my 220.  I'm somewhat of a novice and I'm wondering if you'd be willing to help me out a 
bit.

I followed your set-up instructions and found that the Y and LC positions were best on my 
220 as well.  So I swapped the chips and installed the two MK cartridges.  However, the 
Epson Utility is telling me that the ink is low in both of those positions, despite the fact 
that I just installed full MK cartridges with Y and LC chips.  Does this mean the chips aren't 
functioning or installed properly?

I should mention that before installing the new Eboni carts, all of the other MIS UTR2 
cartridges (Y, LC, C, M, LM positions) were very low.  So now the Epson Utility is reporting 
that the Black position is full (which is strange since there's an almost empty LC cart in 
there now) and all the other positions are low (which is strange since there are two full 
Eboni cartridges in the Y and LC positions).  I'm not sure what to make of this at all.

Second, I'm trying to follow your instructions for creating the curve in QTR but I can't 
figure out how to do it on a Mac.  On the Mac the QTR is integrated into the Print dialog, 
and I can't seem to find where the custom curve creation part of the program is.  I'll go 
over to the QTR forum but if anyone here can help with that I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!
Chris
