No response in Quadtone Rip group, so trying here to reach a wider
audience:

For anyone who has done this (and prints using QTR, of course), are
you happy with the switch? Did you have any problems with clogging?
What differences did you see in image quality (if any) over
Ultrachrome? Do you refill cartridges, and if so, how much
trouble/time does this take?

Thanks for any info.

John,  I have used both UC and UT& inks on my 2200 with both QTR and 
IJC/OPM.  I haven't had any problems with clogging or anything else.  
The clear, easy-fill carts are easy to refill and the chip resetter 
works fine.

I have used the UC inks a lot more than the UT7.  My experience is 
that with good profiles, the UC inks are fine and I didn't find the 
UT7 inks to give me much or any more.  Someone who has dedicated a 
lot of time to monochrome inksets might find differently.  

All my profiles for the UC inks and IJC/OPM don't use any yellow inks 
(except the sepia profiles) so metamerism doesn't seem to be an issue.

I still have the UT7 inks, so can use them if I wish, but don't see a 
huge advantage.  But, like I said, dedicated users might find 
differently.

Lou
