Question for Paul Roark - Or Anyone Else Who Knows

Question for Paul Roark - Or Anyone Else Who Knows

2007-02-07 by fisherrcan

Mr. Roark, I was looking at your information on the UT2 inksets from
MIS  regarding options with the UT2 set and the Yellow ink position
for the Epson 1280.  I sent an email to MIS asking about the other
options for the Yellow position in the cartridge and how I would go
about ordering one of the other options (either the Gloss Optimizer or
the additional Light Black) since I didn't see the ability to do that
when I put the cartridge into the shopping cart.

MIS' response was less than helpful, unfortunately.  They seemed not
to know what I was referring to and suggested I contact Paul Roark. 
Tried your website but get Server Not Found errors so thought I'd try
this route instead.

Thanks in advance for your help.

UT2 with Glop is sold off this MIS page:
http://www.inksupply.com/roarkslab.cfm 

I'm not sure if they ever pre-loaded UT2 carts with a light carbon in the Y
position.  To do this you'd have to load your own.  Additionally, you'd want
to modify the curves to take advantage of it.  So, unless you're comfortable
with that, you'd probably be best off avoiding that option.

My web space seems to be working now, but the old ISP has been problematic.
For this reason, I'm switching ISPs and need to transfer the domain name.  I
have no idea what kind of a mess this will cause in the next few days.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the quick reply.  It was more the extra light black that I
was interested in than the glop.  Modifying the curves isn't a
problem.  Not ready to load my own cartridges at this point till I try
them out to see if I like them.  I've got a second 1280 coming just
for b&w so when it arrives I'll order a set of the standard UT2 and
see how they work.
