Subject: [Digital BW] 280 (was OK & Epson has revised their website)

Epson wants B&W photographers to use its 2400 and other "k3" printers.

>How is the R280's reliability and ink clogging?

My 260 has been nearly perfect.  It's the one I use for daily printing.  I
generally use the 1800 or 7500 for my best B&W.  The 260 with Eboni does
good black only, but the 1800 with the 3-MK workflow is slightly smoother.

>The QTR requirements page:

See http://www.quadtonerip.com/html/QTRoverview.html  The 260 family is
supported.

Be sure MIS has the carts available for these.  I'm not sure what MIS's
status is with respect to carts. (They're closed for year-end inventory
now.)
