Re: [Digital BW] Q for Paul. 2100 from UT7 to UT-3D?

Paul,

thanks you so much for your patience with me.
I have few last questions and than I go shopping to MIS ;-)

In your 4K+ pdf you mentioned MK MIS Eboni, in K position) when looking
at MIS pages I see MK is named Universal Black and Eboni Black is marked
as K only. Do you meant to use universal black (PK) or Eboni (k) black
for this 4K+cm approach?

I was assuming you did mean Eboni and I choose inks from
http://www.inksupply.com/arcink_k4.cfm
http://www.inksupply.com/arcink_mispro.cfm

this is a list of 4oz bottles.
I hope it is correct I include also R800 GLOP (for dilution, hope it is
correct one) and set of free cartridges, these are working perfectly for
me now with UT7.

MISPRO-4-K  MIS PRO INK - 4oz BOTTLE - EBONI BLACK
MISPRO-4-PK  MIS PRO INK - 4oz BOTTLE - PHOTO BLACK
K4-4-LK  EPSON K3 EQUIVALENT INK - 4 OZ LIGHT BLACK
K4-4-LLK  EPSON K3 EQUIVALENT INK - 4 OZ LIGHT-LIGHT BLACK
K4-4-LM  EPSON K3 EQUIVALENT INK - 4 OZ LIGHT MAGENTA
K4-4-LC  EPSON K3 EQUIVALENT INK - 4 OZ LIGHT CYAN

ESCR800-4-OPT  R800 4 OZ GLOSS OPT
ARC-2200-EC-SET  EMPTY CART SET (8) WITH CHIPS FOR EPSON 2200

I think I do start with QTR already now to learn more, thanks for
pointing to Tom Moore's tutorial.

I believe even with my UT7 set I can try to experiment and I need to get
 some experience with my x-rite as well. ;-)

Last question. What is advantage of this approach comparing wit using
UT-3D ink set on 2100/2200 printer?

Once more thanks Paul!
I would like to send you one of my prints, could you privately send me
your mail address? Thank you.
