Re: K6 inks, R220 & F-type papers

2007-09-01 by zonepeter

The current K6 inks are for matte papers only.  The F type papers print 
like a glossy paper and use the PK inks.  Currently there is no glossy 
support for the K6/7 inks, however it is on the horizon.  I don't know 
the Epson printers well enough to say if the 220 will be supported, but 
if it is a 6 ink printer, probably not.  I think the glossy system will 
require a 7 ink printer.  I would check at the Piezography group, where
Jon Cone has been updating progress on this system.
