Eboni Black

Eboni Black

2003-03-12 by Chris Hargens

I just ordered a bottle of Eboni black from MIS to replace my current 
VM black. Their representative confirmed over the phone that it would 
be necessary to change the black cart in my CFS, that the ink cannot 
just be poured in in the bottle. The black cart with attached tube is 
not listed on their Website (only the cart set), but it can be 
purchased separately. The one for the 1160 costs $15 (CFC-108). 
Also, I'd be interested in hearing results the beta users are having 
with the "Ultra-Tone" bw inkset - 
http://www.inksupply.com/index.cfm?source=html/ultratone.html In 
particular, how well does the PK black with inkset print on various 
glossy papers. If something like a fiber-based/looking archival 
inkjet paper (Oriental?) comes out soon and this inkset prints 
without bronzing on it, that would satisfy my most of my desires.
