Re: Seeking printer and ink recommendation

I don't want to get into all of the technical stuff around B&W
printing. I am extremely happy with my inksets from Jon Cone. They
really work straight out of the box. He use QTR to deliver the
profiles, but you NEVER need to change anything or know anything about
QTR.

I have been using the Selenium K7s but am in the process of switching
to the Special Edition inks - the results are absolutely gorgeous!
