Re: MIS ink question

2007-10-24 by scott_now_coming

Frank,

Are you printing through QuadToneRip (QTR)?

Paul set up the R800/1800 to print with 3 matte black carts installed 
in the printer.

Paul chose the MK, PK, and GO position for  3MK
printing. That way if some one stilled wanted to print color, they 
still could. If one wanted to use glop, they would just pull the MK 
cart from the GO position and re-install a glop cart.

(This set up works so well for me, that I forget I'm printing BO. 3MK 
prints real smooth. I like the little courseness of "straight BO", 
but none of the newer printers permit it.)

papers. I bought a pack of trial papers suggested by Paul Roarke 
because I konw nothing about this. My question is this...if the inks 
are to be used on matte papers , why is there an ink for the GO spot 
on the ink carrier. I thought that was for glossy papers.
