William & Mycroft...

Hmmm, I thought that Mycroft was able to print and work with the
standard inks from Epson - can you clarify?

I just ran a test board and all the ink came off using Ferric
Chloride - long before etching was done. Don't know if the MIS-PRO
inks or any others will work in this printer because it is a dye ink
printer. Hmmmm, I may have just trashed a brand new printer :-(
