Eboni6 in 1800 (was "Carbon-6" Ink Mixing)

2008-03-20 by pr_roark

Denis,

Eboni-6 should be very smooth in an 1800, but I have not compared it to
what the K7 inkset can do in that printer.   These Eboni dilutions print
more warmly in the 1.5 pl printers, so I have not had much interest in
pursuing them there.   But for those who like warm prints, it might be
an interesting option.
