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. Chris Hargens
