... Yes, that's what you would expect then. But if the inks have all the nice features you mention (and I take your word for it) why on earth don't they tell...
... A nice example of the quality of the Epson scanner range. Something I have written about for 2 years. The Epson samples in this case were not even wet...
Greetings, it seems that quite a few use varnishes. Sorry if this has been asked/said before: what is the archival aspect of those varnishes? Do we have any...
Your "best bet" is to make yourself heard at Epson. I have no doubt that without substantial feedback black only will not be available on any future Epson...
That's interesting. I wonder how the Epson compares to a Scitek flatbeds? I guess glass mounting would make a world of difference, especially in the amount of...
Sirs, Thank you for your comments. I do not know how to reply, except by trying to be specific in explaining my reasoning. "Clog" and "clogged" seem tio be...
<Again: What was the probable cause of the problem?> Air in the cart. If the head was "clogged", then the Epson carts wouldn't have worked either, until the...
Yes. I think the issues are less the ink and more the cartridges. Ukko, check for air bubbles around the poppet valve. If so re-prime the cartridge with the...
... From: "scott_now_coming" "Air in the cart" How could one verify this? What is the probable cause of this? How could one prevent it? "Adaptive action" -...

Well I think we have established why and a quick glance at the structure/design of an MIS cart vs an Epson one is informative. MIS are aware of the problem...
Dear Group: Thanks for the wealth of info. I'll probably have a 4990 within a week and I'm going to research and try the "wet" setup (never done that)....
Finally! I mailed MIS a similar analysis a long time ago, except that it was much more detailed, but got no reply. How can I have missed this information if...
I agree that air (or foam) and carts can be sources of trouble. But, most of us seem to get good results from the carts MIS finds. Searching for the best...
Ideally, we would like to be able to find a varnish that will be an oxygen barrier, but so far there appears to be no good oxygen barrier available to us. I've...
Hello Paul Do you mean that MIS changes the cartridge supplier every so often? Ukko Heikkinen Palu Roark wrote: "But, most of us seem to get good results from...

... From what I can tell they are constantly looking for better cart suppliers. And they do testing of carts and send samples to beta testers like me when they...
Epson's biz is machinery, pigment, and paper. They'd be nuts to worry about Black Only enthusiasts...they don't need us. Epson's pig costs surely aren't a...
Ukko, ... With the new easy top fill carts these is no reason to buy prefilled ones any more. I get the inks in 4oz bottles and refill the carts. After the...
As a digital photographer for 10 years now, I'm on my 30th digital camera. Starting with the 200 series Kodaks, we were forced to shoot RAW (it wasn't called...
My comments apply to the refillable carts (purchased empty). I have purchased 23 of them and have had problems with almost all (no chip problems). They are...
Don't know exactly, but the R2400 carts are more or less the same size as the R1800 carts and the 2100/2200 carts, and according to Epson the 2100/2200 carts...
