Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Epson 9700 support?

2016-08-09 by Roy Harrington

The 7700 and 9700 are 4 ink printers. They double up on all 4 inks and print with the
same heads as the x900 or x890 printers. My impression is that they are just faster
for less demanding quality output (since no light-inks are used). They also list 1440x1440
as the max resolution.
I've never used one or seen one so details are unknown to me. It's possible that the
x890 driver would be useable -- I guess if you avoid any of the light-ink usage.
All-in-all I doubt you'd be getting what you really want.

BTW, the install file rename would be: Install9700=9890.command
the letters "Quad" are not included -- they do show up in the printer name.

I don't see the 7700 / 9700 listed on the official QTR support page, but I'm wondering if anyone is using a 7700 / 9700 with QTR. I'm trying to find a used 9800 here in Vancouver but it’s slim pickings and there’s a 9700 available.

Thanks,


Mark
