[Digital BW] Re: Epson K3-like Inks

2008-07-29 by Yeung-Seu Yoon

>  Thanks so much for your advice.  I have been trying to decide whether to use the OEM 
inkset, convert the R2400 to the Cone inkset, or buy the 3800 and hope/wait until a set of 
Cone cartridges for that printer goes on the market.  Your advice has helped me to favor 
conversion or buying the 3800.

Cheers,
