Hi, I  just got a new 4800.I haven't even loaded any ink into it yet.I've 
been  printing on an old 1160 in BO mode with Eboni on HPR 308 with
great results  using the 1160 epson driver.Now that I have this 4800
I'm not quite sure  where to start.If I load the stock K3 carts with
Mk, and want to continue  with HPR 308, how would the results be with
QTR compared to using epsons  ABW mode, or even the Image Print RIP
(which I can't afford right now)Down  the road if I switch to Cone's
K7, I know QTR is what I'll want to use from  what I've read, but again
I'm a little confused where to start software  wise with these K3
inks.Thanks ahead for any advice.

Chris, what do you want to produce with the 4800. Give us an idea of what  it 
is you will be trying to print. What kind of images will you be printing in  
B/W and what kind in color? Not knowing your needs makes it difficult to 
suggest  strategies. I run 2 4800's and 3 4000's to get what I'm looking for in B/W 
and  color.
