3-MK ink set and color printing on R800

3-MK ink set and color printing on R800

2008-01-07 by Zisis Kardianos

Hi all,
I have installed the 3-MK ink set on my R800 using the MK, PK, and GL
positions of my printer. With this setup I've read, I could still
print color on matte papers. For glossy I had to change at least the
one eboni for the PK ink.
I print B&W using this setup and the QTR and I get fine results.
But my printer doesn't print color any more.
Actually, all I want to do is to print text with color images on a
plain paper. I choose "text and images" and 'Fine" or "photo" setting
on the Epson driver, but the print comes out black only!
Any suggestions?
Thank you for your feedback,
Zisis

Be sure to turn off the gloss optimizer - "Gloss" - in the Epson driver.
You have Eboni in that spot, and if Gloss is on, it'll obliterate most of
the image.

Thank you Paul for your reply,

it was just my negligence. I had left on the print settings window of
the acrobat reader, the option "print color as black" checked.
