RE: [QuadtoneRIP] Dye based ink set

You won't get bronzing on matte papers with pigment inks. You will get
limited bronzing on glossy papers. Dye inks on non-swellable papers
(i.e. RC glossy/semigloss and matte) will probably give you very limited
print life.

Subject: [QuadtoneRIP] Dye based ink set



Hi,

Could anyone give me advise on what ink-set to buy for my Epson 2100. I
use Lyson 
Photochrome ink and use QTR to combine the black and diluted black for
B/W prints. I now 
want to setup this printer for black/white printing only, so more shades
of gray can now be 
installed. I hate bronzing, that's why I am looking for a dye based
black/white ink set. Does 
anyone have experience? It seems that Lyson has a dye based inkset:
Daylight Darkroom, but 
I have no idea if this will work with QTR.

Cheers, Piet
