Re: R1800 for Paul Roark

2008-05-02 by Paul Whiting

Thanks, Roger, that's encouraging. I see someone else in this thread
got some, too. I also find navigating that website confusing (guess
I'm easily confused <g>) but could you give me the catalog number of
those carts? I think I found them but want to be sure.

I am somewhat familiar with MIS, Eboni ink, and their spongeless
carts, so that helps. I've loaded those carts for my R220 to do
Clayton Jones' BO printing using Eboni ink in the black position and
MIS cleaning fluid in the color cart positions. This has worked
beautifully, even up to 5 x 7 and am very pleased with the results on
Moab Kayenta paper.

But took the plunge and got a refurbed R1800 with Paul's helpful
encouragement but haven't removed my OEM color carts yet. Want to try
his 3 MK approach so I can get up to 11 x 14, hopefully.

I've been reluctant to try eBay carts, and comments here have
confirmed my fears.

Paul
