I just made my first large format (23x33") prints and boy do they stink. All that ink, I mean. The prints look fine. I'm using an Epson 7600 loaded with MIS UT7 carbon-pigment inks. So now I'm wondering what kind of air ventilation / cleaning systems are popular with people who regularly make large prints. Will the standard air cleaners that remove cigarette smoke and dust also handle ink odors?

What inks, I have never smelt anything? Mark

The smell you are noticing is not normal. You may have a batch of expired inks. Check the date on each of your ink carts.

Thanks for the reply. The inks are new (July 06) and the smell only lasts about 24 hrs. So I suspect the smell is probably normal - e.g. think about how much ink is being introduced into the air. What I was looking for was air purifier / cleaner recommendations to deal with the smell during the first smelly 24 hrs. Opening a window in winter isn't a favored option.

I again wanted to stress to you that the smell your inks are producing is NOT normal. This alone should convince you that there is something wrong. I would replace your inks.

Something must be wrong. There is no odor with the inks, is it your paper? Mark

You guys must have broken noses. The current UT7 inks have a distinct ammonia smell. Best regards, John Moody

Does it smell like dead fish? My Ultrachromes smell like that when they off-gas. Really nasty when I have 10 large 40x50 lusters hanging around. I've never found out what it is. The K3 ink smells a little better. Walker

IT IS! It is the smell of ammonia. I should have realized that. Cut an ink bag open and dump bleach into it. Wonder what that would do. ;-) It wouldn't clear the air. That's for sure.

Even though the comment below may have been made in jest, I just want to say the mixing ammonia and bleach is a very bad idea. The resulting reaction produces a very toxic mixture and should never be done!! Best, Phil
