Re: BO Question

2005-02-14 by scott_now_coming

Yes, Clayton is the one who got me interested in BO printing.

I guess I should have worded my question differently:

Why couldn't some one write a program to do BO printing on an Epson 
that didn't have "Black Only" as an option in it's drive.

For example, the R800 ,and I understand, the new R1800 won't 
have "BO" as an option (unless Epson changes that from the Japaneese 
version).
