Re: EPSON R1800

2010-02-09 by bobtail75

Hi,Willum,
I started using the 1800 with the Paul Rourke 3MK system, and got good results on Lyson Smooth Fine Art paper. I started with the 3 cartridges from Ink Supply in the USA. Like you I am UK based , in Devon, so many of the US papers etc are difficult to get.Although I may get back to using the MIS ink, I now have an all Lyson set-up, supplied by Marrutt Ltd.( www.marrutt.com ) They supplied 3 re-fillable cartridges (auto re-set type) and a 125ml bottle of the Mk ink from their system. On the Smooth Fine Art paper I get sumtuous BW A3's .I use the QTR curve as for PA Smooth HP270. For a cooler print I use Permajet Matt 240 on the same curve.You need to use the rear paper feed for the Fine Art paper.
Chris.
