Should I  get the funnel fill carts like those sold at MIS and fill
with K7, or would  you recommend starting off with pre-filled
carts?Thanks  again!



I would suggest you start with the Split K 7 set and adjust carts or inks  
from there. Your images ask for warm black tones rather than the cool tone of NK 
 7, even on HanPhR. Your choices rught now are Selenium, Sepia and warm 
blacks.  You can check with Jon Cone to see when his Carbon Sepia inks will be 
ready.  After you see the prints from the Split K 7 inks, you can get funnel fill 
carts  and order bottles from IJM of the tones you think will work best. Email 
Jon  at IJM and get his input on how best to achieve the feel you are 
seeking. The  heavy hitters print with the numbers, ink limiting and etc. I print 
with my  emotions, and the hell with the numbers. That's why I run so damned many 
 printers (9). Sometimes I make a print with 2 nozzles clogged and I love it. 
As  the French say: "to each his own." Just keep your sanity and have fun.
