William & Mycroft...

Hmmm, I thought that Mycroft was able to print and work with the 
standard inks from Epson - can you clarify?

I just ran a test board and all the ink came off using Ferric 
Chloride - long before etching was done.  Don't know if the MIS-PRO 
inks or any others will work in this printer because it is a dye ink 
printer.  Hmmmm, I may have just trashed a brand new printer :-(
