I am using wide format refillable carts. I have been sucking the K3 
inks out of Epson 4800 carts and using them in the 9600.

No slot for the Light Light Black, but the results are decent.  Based 
on looking at profiles, about 2/3 of the way toward the K3/9800 
improvements. Quite a bit of improvement in the low L values over the 
K2 inks.  Enough that I probably wouldn't bother to upgrade to a 9800.

I am going to load the K3 Vivid later when I get a chance and see 
what those look like. Those supposedly will kill the heads on the 
older machines, so I am not sure whether I will leave them in. I'll 
just test for now. I might "sacrifice" one og my 7600's and leve it 
in there. ;>)

The QTR profiles worked well by the way - thanks!  I printed out the 
Harman and Hahnemuehle, cool and warm. I like the warm quite a bit, 
very simple.   I haven't had a chance to look at the data yet to see 
about the anomolies that you mentioned.

Best,
Michael
