Re: UT-R18

Paul and Roger, thanks for your responses.

 

Paul, I guess I was thinking so much along the lines of the 1800 and 3MK
that I forgot about the UT14 inks.  I read your paper on them and I am going
to modify my approach.

Do you know how MIS K4-PK compares to their PK for the 1800.  Do the same
comments apply?

 

I think I'm a bit confused over the definition of carbon.  I thought
"carbon" was synonomous with matte/eboni black and anything glossy or color
was some sort of pigment, but not carbon.  Since the UT-14 LK and PK inks
are carbon and glossy compatible, I guess I'm wrong.

 

If I put the six UT-14 inks in the 1800, that leaves me with two more slots.
If one is used for sepia, what would you recommend for the other?  Would the
1800's tendancy to band influence this choice?

 

Thanks again!

 

Bob
