According to tne MIS website, they recommend their pigments inks to replace the dye inks. We've been talking about the MIS inks, but has there been a definite answer about the Durabrite inks? My impression in talking with Volkan is that he uses the MIS inks as a routine replacement ink. Thats what he had in his printer when he tried it. Correct me If I am wrong . I've done some quick tests with the Durabrite ink on a C84 and there does seem to be some promise there. I ran into uneven printing, similar to Stefan, but durable to etch after heating. it was interesting in that after sitting for a couple of weeks without heating, the colors were durable to alcohol, but the black was not The test were quick in that i used my daughters printer when I visited her at college. I didn't really have the time to do it right. She's home now for the summer and so is her printer ;) This week the R220 is on sale at Circuit City for $99 with a $20 Circuit City card. TANSTAAFL!
