Re: [colorvision_group] Re: R1800 unexplained shift from neutral to magenta

2009-02-18 by Michael de Courcy

thank you toby for your keen analysis of my color shift problems.  
after running out of ideas. i decided to check the portion of the  
remaining in the bottle after i had topped up the bulk reservoir. i  
checked the red and magenta first. they were identical color red even  
though the manufacturers label indicated them to be red and magenta.  
so mystery solved i was running prints with a very red diluted magenta  
ink. again i do appreciate your helpful persistence in responding even  
though it was evident from the beginning that this problem wasn't a  
datacolour product issue. . . .    michael
