Yes that was what I thought I understood and why I was so surprised
at the results. So much so that I did a reprint using the C86 and as
I said checked the carts and the invoice from MIS for the R220 -
thinking that maybe they had sent the N inksets instead - but unless
the labeling is wrong - that wasn't the anawer. Maybe the labeling
is wrong because this is not all that subtle.
Thanks again.
Has anyone else seen this and or have any additional ideas?
