Quadtone Rip on Epson 4000 vs MIS UT-FS ink on Epson 4000

2008-04-10 by Arthur Fink

[Not having seen any responses to this query,
	 I'm posting again.    -- Arthur Fink]

I've been printing all my black and white on a pair of old Epson 
3000's, using MIS Eboni and UT-FS inks.  I love the quality, but they 
are s-l-o-w.  Also, each printer takes up more than its share of space.

I reserve my Epson 4000, with it's regular Epson inks, for color 
work.  No complaints there.

Now I'm contemplating ditching the 3000's, and using QTR on my Epson 
4000.  How would the quality compare?

By the way, I use Moab Entrada for most of my printing, occasionally 
Hannemuhle Photo Rag.  Any comments on preferred papers for the 4000 
with Epson inks (particular reference to dMax)?
