Re: [APML] 3rd party printer inks

Hi Bobby:
Are you using the pigment ink printers (2000, 2200) or one of the dye ink
printers (all the other Epson printers)? I use only Epson inks with my 1280,
but I've used Kodak and Ilford heavy-weight glossy papers with good results.
(B&H carries both.)  I don't think the Kodak is as good as Epson or Ilford
heavy weight, but better than the Epson light-weight. I really can't see any
difference between the Ilford and Epson heavy weight results, but I haven't
done any accelerated fading tests. Over 4 - 6 months I don't see any fading
with either, using my Epson 1280 printer and the Epson inks.
