including free shipping. This is the 1.5 picoliter six ink printer on
which I developed the Special Edition of Piezography for. The
combination of my newest black & white Piezography inkset and paper
curves, and this particular Epson printer produces the finest quality
Piezography print ever. The $100 off from Epson is an amazing
incentive for you to consider adding this printer to your Piezography
printmaking. The inkset I developed for it is only available for the
1400. The printer produces prints up to 13" wide.

coupon on the JonCone Studio Special Edition Piezography system for
it. The system includes a new cartridge-less CIS system using dampers
and tubing which feed from bottles. There are six shades of ink in 4
ounce bottles which should allow you to make at least 500-600 8.5" x
11" prints before any one bottle of ink runs out. We include manuals
for using Piezography as well as unique Soft-Proofing profiles for you
to preview your images from Photoshop. The prints will have crisp
neutral highlights that meld slowly into a selenium tone with warm
shadows. It is simply the most gorgeous system I have ever produced
for black & white printmaking.
