Re: [Digital BW] Epson K3 Magenta ink

I'm no expert but I'm sure that the vivid inkset is only used with the 3880 and 2880??

      Does anyone know if the new "vivid magenta" inks Epson is advertising have been implemented in all their UltraChrome inksets, such as the K3 set the R2400 uses?  I have sent in an email to Epson making this inquiry, but I'm not hopeful of a usable answer.



I just swapped out my light magenta and magenta carts in the last couple of days and now my prints show a distinct magenta cast.  Up until today, I have been able to achieve very neutral blacks with the K3 inks and ABW on my 2400, but know, it looks like I have a huge amount of work to do to figure out new settings to use to get back to neutral blacks.
