Digital BW, The Print

Paul,

I was speaking with Joe Berndt at Bowhaus the other day and he said 
he was developing some profiles with IJC/OPM using the MIS UT7 inkset 
and a 2200.  I told him the MIS site specifically says NOT to use UT7 
with the Bowhaus IJC/OPM program, and that they are designed for use 
with the Epson driver and your curves.  Joe said he was getting great 
results using the UT7 set with IJC/OPM, and saw absoultely no reason 
not to use them, especially since IJC can create profiles for any 
inkset that fits into the printer.  

Just thought I'd ask your opinion, since you developed many of these 
inks and created curves for their use. 

I am using the standard UC inkset at present, but would like to try 
the UT7 set.  My biggest concern is problems I may have when swapping 
inksets in and out of my 2200.  Not sure the best way to go, or 
whether to wait until I buy another larger printer (maybe a 4000 or 
7600) for color work, dedicating my 2200 to B&W.  I'd buy a C86, but 
I want larger prints, and I don't think the C86 is supported by 
IJC/OPM.

Thanks,

Lou

Lou,

IJC/OPM is clearly capable of running the UT7 inkset.  I think the confusion
might be that about a year ago MIS and Bowhaus came up with a specialized
inkset for IJC.  The profiles for that inkset would not work with UT7.  But
IJC is very capable of running any inkset on a 2200 from what I have seen --
as long as the profiles have been made.

Paul,

I have found the 2200 UT-7 to be a great ink set.  I have been working on
profiles for IJC/OPM ( Mac and PC) and will have these available soon.  On
glossy papers, like the Kirkland Gloss I¹m getting a 2.4 D-Max.

I do think that the MIS information is in reference to the 2200 UT profiles
not being compatible with the UT-7 inks.  This is true, the 2200 UT inks are
very different then the UT-7 inks.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Paul, Joe, and Lou:

Like Lou, I'm running UT (not UT7) in my 2200 w/IJC. I 
admit to some befuddlement over the three MIS UT 
variants, so I've stuck with the plain old UT's. 
Besides, I already have a set of 4oz UT bottles. 
Now, though, I've almost used them up. 

Should I be considering switching to the UT7 when my ink 
runs out? These DMax numbers got my attention. Does UT7 
yield better results than UT in general, or is the 
difference simply due to UT7 being designed to run 
under the Epson driver, and they're otherwise equivalent? 
Any other factors I'd want to consider? I assume 
I'd need fresh carts.

Thanks,
David Wroblewski
