Thank you for your comments Mike!

Unfortunately, I just sold my 7880.  

I am using the Carbon 6 matte black inks in my 7600 right now. I am 
looking for a glossy B&W ink set for the 7600, or for a 2200 that I 
have.

I was thinking of using the Epson K3 inks - K, LK, and LLK - as the 
basis of the inks. With QTR I can select the appropriate channels.  I 
can buy the Epson inks just as cheaply a I can get 3rd party inks.

Any ideas on further dilutions, or just leave it with the 3 inks?  

I may also add a GLOP channel, though I am not sure whose GLOP to 
use. I have heard that the Epson GLOP is still the best, but hard to 
come by enough to fill a 220ml cart, hacking all of those R1800 
carts. ;>)

Whose GLOP are you using? I may just spray for the near term.

Thanks!

Best,
Michael
