Subject: Re: [Digital BW] Learning Phase
When you select black ink for printing via the epson driver the 2200
will use only the black ink cartridge. You can put Epson Matte Black
(MK), Epson Photo Black (PK), or MIS Eboni K in the black ink cartridge
slot. Do not attempt to load these black ink carts in any of the other
cartridge slots. Each cartridge has a chip that is specific to a
particular cartridge position and it will not work in other positions
(unless you switch the chips). Also, be aware that MIS sells Eboni in
two different cartridges for the 2200 and they are labeled as follows:
ARC-T0348-K MIS EBONI BLACK (use this in the black cartridge position
for BO printing and with the color inks for full color printing)
ARC-T0347-QUT MIS Ultratone Lt. Black (this is Eboni black in a
cartridge that goes in the light black position and can only be used as
part of the full Ultratone inkset for printing grayscale via QTR or
IJC/OPM)
