RE: Printer for inkjet negs

Loris,

I stand corrected about the colorizing comment, I wasn't thinking clearly there, I do recall you mentioning using the Randall workflow. I realized this after I hit the send key. Many pardons.

Now just for the record I have used the MIS FSN inks on Pictorico and they don't work, period! I will be happy to send you a negative made on Pictorico with them via international mail at my expense to prove my point if you wish.

Good day,

Don Bryant

I use the non Eboni MIS FS / FSN Black (I stated this
at least 3 times). Obviously I don't colorize (how am
I supposed to achieve this with a MONOCHROME inkset?).
I use Jeff Randall's RGB workflow. This method lays
considerable amount of black ink (at least two times
the amount layed by Piezo plug-in; check their website
for more information). Your oxymoronic statements
(colorizing with a MONOCHROME inkset), plus my own
experience with MIS FS / FSN Black and the fact that
Mike is stating he has never had any smudging and
alike problems with the FULL MIS inkset makes me think
that you've never actually used MIS inks with
Pictorico and/or you're making false statements
against using MIS FS / FSN inkset with Pictorico for
some unknown-to-me reason. Anyway, as this thread is
heading to a direction unrelated with its original
purpose, I prefer to end it right HERE.
