Re: R2 and UT14 inks

2008-07-21 by Chris Ellis

Hi Paul

Many thanks for the info.

I've read through your documentation on this inkset and one thing I'm
not clear on is the range of tones it produces (i.e. cool to warm) -
if I understood the lab charts it would help but I'm afraid I don't
have a point of reference.

Presumably the warmest it gets is 100% carbon.  Are the cool inks much
cooler than the neutral inks in the R2 system?  Do they compare with,
for example, the cool inks in the old VM inkset for the 1290?

Thanks again

Chris
