Paul, that was what I thought. So, to conclude: If I install the UT7 inks in my 7600, with
UC PK in the K slot and LC in the Y slot, I should be able to print with the Epson driver
sliders alone, with a range from neutral to the carbon-warm tone I see with the C86's UT-
EZ (warm) inkset. [pause] Right? :-)
Thanks for your patience and your help.
Sanders.
