No one knows the answer to this? I don t want to buy the printer and then discover that the paper and ink recommended by Mediastreet are not supported.

I had recently printed a small test image on my Epson 1280, using QTR 2.4.2 & UT2 inks. My Photoshop CS2 document was 8.5 x 11 , but the image was only 2 x

Two questions: 1. I just bought a box of Hahnemuhle Photorag Satin 310gsm instead of the Photorag 308 by mistake for printing with the Piezography Neutral K7

Dear Bob, You just might have the cartridges in the wrong slots... Check their positions, I seem to remember a thread about this a while ago. jim k [Non-text

Hi Mark, It sounds like an alignment issue. Like maybe one head is up or down a whole inkjet spacing. This might make it look aligned but in fact the jets

Bob, Sounds like the cartridge air hole is clogged. Sometimes the pulltab doesn t come off completely. Pull out the cart, gently separate the two halves.

I ve just installed NK7 inks in my Epson 2200 and have a huge problem with posterization in mid-tone areas, though my shadows and highlights show good detail.

Thanks for the feedback, folks. I ve done the full set of head alignments, using the printer panel (no change), the software driver (no change) and the printer

You may also want to do the more extensive head alignment. This was a common start up problem for 7000, 9000 users of the early piezotone users. It uses

It s a bit hard to tell onscreen but it does appear that there is spatter occurring. I would try cleaning the underside of the LK head using the techniques

When you look at the detail it sure looks like the LK is not aligned with the K. Each letter has a LK shadow displaced slightly above the K forming the detail

The differences you are seeing may well be less than you think. Depending on your densitometer, they might be within it s measurement tolerances. Also

I would suggest that no software can write directly to the printer driver. It would need to have it s own driver to do that. You will have to make the changes

Two things to check. First, be sure the paper size matches what you are printing on. Also check be sure that your printer is feeding paper correctly. -Stephen

Hi Amadou, You have exactly the right idea for all these setups. I have a few comments though. I d recommend using the 21x4 step target rather than 51 step.
