joe_mcinerney Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I work for a community college that has a few rolls of Epson paper they bought when they had an Epson 10000 with dye inks. That printer is gone and has been replaced with a 7600 and 9600 both with Photo black Ultrachrome inks. I have been under the belief that the papers probably have a different coating for the dye inks and would not be compatible with the Ultrachrome inks but I can't find the info to back this up. Any suggestions where to look or what has your experience been using paper that is now discontinued with a more current pigment based printer?

steven_clark Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Really we need to know what the paper is. Some particular papers can only be used with dye inks. Others work equally well for both. That said, I think the rolls are too wide to fit without modification. At least they are if they were full printer width.

kory gunnarsen Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Epson did used to make paper formulated for dye inks. Some papers are dye + pigment and some were only dye. Yours sounds like dye only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
