Hi I'm very interested in trying B&W printing, but I have an Epson Photo 950 (in the US 960 model). I have never seen this model mentioned on any related pages. Is there someone who can tell me if I can use this printer with MIS inks? The printer has 7 cartriges, 2 (full)black + 5 photo colors. I'm wery greatfull for all help I can get. JPK

The 960 appears to be in the R200 family. See http://www.epson.com/cmc_upload/0/000/030/242/SPR200_familyComparison.pdf But, its specifications are quite different from the R200, and it uses the MIS clear carts that are for the last generation, which included the 2200. See http://www.inksupply.com/c82refill.cfm There is no MIS B&W inkset specifically for the 960, but it may well work fine with the R200 EZ inkset that will probably be out soon. You'd have to hand load the carts, however, since the R200 takes the newer ones. There is clearly some risk in trying a printer that has not been found to work well with a particular inkset.
