Using EPSON R800 to print water-based inks

Using EPSON R800 to print water-based inks

2013-11-13 by nigel custance

Hi. I need to print special test targets using Quadtone to set  up contrast ranges etc.. The targets are water-based. Has anybody used EPSON and alternative cartridges with water based inks?
Thanks

There are a number of third party color and B&W water-based inksets for the R800. Inksupply.com is one of the vendors.

Paul,
Many thanks for the information. It is not always obvious which inks are water based so your lead has really helped.
I've just looked on your website - amazing, fantastic images.
Best wishes Nigel
