Digital BW, The Print

Hi,
does anyone know about a black only option for R1800,
heard abaout japanese driver, but don't know whwere to find
best thanks in advance for any possible information

You can use the Quadtone rip to select exactly which ink(s) is used.  
It takes some tinkering to get the right density, and you can't print 
borderless (last I checked).

One black in an 1800 bands.  It takes three and a rip.  See

I have not used the Linux-Gimp+Gutenberg-print approach directly.  QTR uses
some of the Gimp print engine, I believe.  What you need is any "rip"
("raster image processor" or third party print utility) that will give you
control of each channel independently.  The Epson driver controls are not
enough.  An advantage to QTR is that I and others have posted profiles so
that you would not have to make your own.  

>2-In France R1800 => new R1900. Is R1900 like 3-MK-R1800 ?

I assume the R1900 will be similar to the R1800.  However, I have not been
able to determine whether the same cartridges will be used.  At least in the
U.S. obtaining new, empty, re-fillable cartridges is becoming a problem due
to our government helping Epson perfect its monopoly over inks for its
printers.  Be sure you'll be able to get empty cartridges for the printer
before buying one.

Hope this helps.
