    Official PK Poll - Is there any future in refilling?

    I assume there is a refilling. As Epson begins with bootles, the will find solution to prevent revenue loss. Bundeling ink bottles with activation codes will prevent using third party inks. High quality printers in large format areas are currently not changed and there will be a refill market as...

    OCP - PIGMENT INK for Epson R2400

    I assume this was the shipping to the US I know this optimization. this is also available for i1Profiler. Seems to be a misunderstanding on my side, I had in mind that you did a special black and white optimization I will try this sometime. As written I do not B&W for myself. If I have to...

    OCP - PIGMENT INK for Epson R2400

    Hmm, just a regular ICC profile? In general I create ICC profile with an i1Pro and i1Profiler using custom testcharts with 988 color patches on 2 A4/US Letter pages. But I never did a special B&W profiling. Is there any public information how to optimize B&W printing with ICC profiles? I...

    OCP - PIGMENT INK for Epson R2400

    I personally like the R1900 and R2000 printers with their gloss optimizer. But these printers are bad choices for printing black & white pictures as they only use one black ink (no LK, LLK). My prefered paper type is either pearl/satin or matte and also pearl/satin canavas, sometimes matte...

    What photo paper size for creating ICC profile?

    I use i1Profiler and regularly use A4 or US Letter format. For these paper formats I created testchart wirh 988 patches fitting to both DIN A4 and US Letter format. I also created testcharts for use on 5x7 papers as well. As the paper is smaller I created 8 charts with 880 patches to have a...

    Epson P50 or Epson 1500W

    the main difference beneath the max print width are the capabilities of the printer driver. All A3+ printer drivers allow to use ICC profiles inside the printer driver. This allows to use printing software which is not able to do color management (like Epson Easy Photo Print) and do the color...

    Cheapest flatbed printer

    you may look for a used HP Photosmart Pro B9180, perfect for this as this printer has a complete flat special media tray and can print on media up to 1.3 mm thickness that is the wrong beginning. You have to check for the possibilities and afterward to see if it is worth the money. Wolfgang

    Why no Prism in the Cartridges

    Just for info: I don't own a Pro 9500. And I would not use CLI-8 cartridges in this printer. What I had in mind was to use Refillable CLI-8 cartridges and use Lucia compatible third party inks from LFP ink suppliers. But just an idea, nothing more Wolfgang

    Why no Prism in the Cartridges

    From this experience one can assume that refillable CLI-8 cartridges can be used instead of PGI-9 carts. Have you tried this? Wolfgang

    Sudhaus refill inks

    as written earlier in other topics: I highly recommend Coloration ink from Farbenwerk.com or OCP inks Wolfgang

    Which ink?

    Hi Andreas, I don't have experience with the inks you listed, but I can highly recommend two inks available in Germany. Your Canon Pixma iP4850 uses Canons Chromalife 100+ inks filled in CLI-526 / PGI-525 cartridges. I recommend either Coloration CD 5 inks from http://www.farbenwerk.com or OCP...

    Hi Pharmacist, after a few days reading andwaiting I will not write here. Nice to read your success with OCP inks. For me this is a proof of my great results and good experience with these inks I had in the past. Your comments about glossy paper: there is also a matte black ink. I currently...

    Epson printer + HP paper. Is there a solution?

    I'm not shure if all these information poster here are correct. In general, photo paper coating needs to be compatible with the kind of used ink. Epson offers printer with bith Dye and Pigment ink. As far as I know, all Epson photo papers have a microporous coating and can be used with pigmented...

    Where do you get your 13" x 19" paper?

    I own a 17 inch roll printer and have access to a 21 inch printer. Like you, I also was looking for good and cheap paper, but unlike you I looked for satin papers. For the 21 inch HP Designjet I use HP Everyday Satin for Pigmented ink and I would like to have this paper also for my Epson Pro...

    Artisan 730 ink

    I'm not sure if this is a good idea. Why not fill all cartridges just in case if some color is needed due to wrong setting? Wolfgang
