Re: Source for 1160 Printers for inkjet negatives

Hi Judy,

Another company which makes Quad tone inks at a price that is reasonable and
doesn't require software that is more expensive then the printer is MIS
Associates.

With a 1160 and these inks you should be able to do well for gum at a fraction
of the Cone price (with much less attitude from the vendor as well). They
print nice pictures on watercolor paper too.
