Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Need Advice with QTR/Inks

2006-01-26 by Frederick Chang

how much are MIS inks?

is it just cheaper to get the new epson inkset by purchasing a new printer?

the new epson inkset is reported to do a marvelous job on printing on 
glossy.

it seems like if you stick with UC inks +  glossy papers, then bronzing 
is something you will have to deal with (i heard of people also spraying 
their glossy prints to reduce the bronzing) ...however on luster paper i 
found that bronzing wasn't really an issue, so maybe you can get away 
with luster? (or maybe glossy is a requirement for you?)

cheers,
fred
