Re: Piezography K6 and Epson 1400

Hello Paul,

Assuming the 1400 is a 1.5 picoliters like the R1800, could one use
Eboni-6 in the R1800 with QTR curves?

I know you do not recommend Carbon-6 due to the generic open source
base. But have you tested Eboni-6 in an R1800?

I know the 1400 is not expensive, but one has to also take into
account buying carts or more probably an empty CIS etc.

Would be nice to be able to use the R1800 until it dies... ;-)

Many thanks again for your invaluable contribution to the BW community!

Denis
