Re: [Digital BW] Claria black only printing

2008-02-17 by Greg

A little off the topic but.... Has anyone tested the after market
Claria  replacement inks that Image Specialists sells? Just wondering
how they compare as the testing that I did on some Claria samples did
show that they were very lightfast even on matte papers like EEM and
one of the Hawk Mountain papers (as well as the Epson glossy that they
are supposed to be used with). If the third party inks held up as
well, then it could provide a whole new way of mixing inks for multi
gray sets. And it should make for no more clogs in those pigment ink
printers!

I'm a bit surprised that Epson hasn't produced a large format printer
for these. It would also have been easy to make a retrofit kit for
existing printers, but we already know their point of view on retrofits.
