You will need three new cartridges if you are using Epson inks now. You need to fill the same matte (Eboni) black in all three and plug them into the two black positions and the gloss optimiser. This means that you from then on only will be able to print on matte papers (BW and colour), unless you swap the matte black in PK position with the normal PK black used for glossy prints. If you do this you can print colour on glossy media, but you must make sure that you turn off the gloss optimiser option (unless you swap that one back also). It is no problem swapping the matte and PK blacks � you don�t need a cleaning cartridge. For changing back the gloss optimiser you probably will need this � I haven�t tried. best regards, Peter From: DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com [mailto:DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Vinyl Graphics of Taft Sent: 18. september 2007 19:26 To: DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Digital BW] Need Info to produce BO (Black Only) prints. I have been reading documentation from Paul Roark site about BO printing. According to what I thought I read, I could do this using my Epson R1800 using just one black cart with Eboni inks. When I went to the MIS site, it got very confusing, so I used their little Customer helper module to ask then exactly what I needed. I got a reply back from some guy who said I should research the site for my answer. What? So I emailed them again, and got a response back today saying I can't do a BW print using existing carts. I had to buy three carts from them, containing various black inks, but I couldn't do it with just one cart. Is this true? I can't exchange my OEM black with Eboni ink? As you can tell, I'm quite the newbie and am a little timid about jumping in deep waters. Uncle Dannie No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
