RE: [QuadtoneRIP] Question for Roy - Eco Tank printers

2016-05-07 by Nigel Richards

Hi,


The original ink is available from Epson in bottles to refill the eco tank printers , so I would guess there is an expectation by Epson that people will repeatedly refill the tanks. I could ask how big the waste pads are and is there a possibility of installing  an external waste bottle?





Just checked on the web and external waste tanks are already available along with a method of resetting the waste counter!.

Are people going to plunk down the money that is mostly the cost of the initial ink tanks just to turn it to a hacked bw printer? How many people? My guess is these printers are warrentied and designed for a single tank of ink and they will fail on the second or third filling . . .

As a substitute for QTR, I made Photoshop curves for several inkset approaches.  It may well be that those can be linearized via Create ICC-RGB for the newer WorkForce & EcoTank models.
