Epson 9800 Piezography ink setup

2015-11-20 by Mark Savoia

Just getting back to looking at QTR for running my Epson 9800 with Piezography inks. Currently using StudioPrint to drive it. Have it set up with 4 selenium inks, shade 1,2,4,5 and 3 carbon sepia inks shades 2,4,5. They both share the selenium shade 1 when printing.

Tired of fighting Windows XP. Would much rather do this on one of my Macs. I have a X-Rite DTP-41

Can I use QTR to print to this printer with this ink setup? Can it “drive” just the ink positions I want depending on ink set I need to print with? Can it perform a split inkset.

Printer setup is as follows:

Position 1 - Flush fluid NOT USED
Position 2 - Shade #2 carbon sepia
Position 3 - Shade #4 carbon sepia
Position 4 - Shade #5 carbon sepia
Position 5 - Shade #1 selenium
Position 6 - Shade #2 selenium
Position 7 - Shade #4 selenium
Position 8 - Shade #5 selenium

Thanks,

Mark
