I do not recommend printing B&W images with a C86 that has color ink
installed.

Are you talking about printing with the MIS EZ B&W inks, or do you have the
MIS 7600 color inks installed?

Oh, yes, I have the MIS 7600 color inks installed. So that would explain
things. You're saying that when I print B&W, I should only be printing with
a quad-tone black and white ink set, such as those listed on
http://www.inksupply.com/utez.cfm? 

Thanks.

Phil,

Yes, the only way you'll get good B&W from the C86 is with the MIS EZ B&W
inks.
