Re: Printer reccomendations
You ask questions for which I can only conjecture, and I don't do that. I can only say for sure what the manual says. "EPSON P600 User Manual - page 137 Switching the Black Ink Type Switching the black ink type takes several minutes and consumes some ink in the process. Check the black ink type media list to select the correct type for the media you loaded. 1. Press the home button. 2. Press the black ink change button. 3. Select Proceed and select one of these types of black ink to switch to: • Photo Black to Matte Black—switching takes about 1.5 minutes • Matte Black to Photo Black—switching takes about 3.5 minutes" I would imagine that the two Black inks use the same feed lines in the head from this, and likely because of the added cost of doing independent feed lines (and whatever other complications that it might entail). But that's as far as I am willing to conjecture. I don't design this stuff, I use it. Far be it from me to tell the engineers how to do their job. I turned off autoswitching because I only rarely print on papers that don't take Matte Black ink and found that if I chose the wrong paper type at first then later changed to the correct paper type, the printer needlessly cycled back and forth wasting a lot of time and a bit of ink.

Generally speaking, printers for dye-based inks tend to have a far greater chance of clogging because the nozzles have smaller orifices than the ones for pigment-based inks. My prior dye-based Epson 1160 (think that's the right number) and 1270 both died because the dye-based ink printing heads became irretrievably clogged and it was too expensive to replace the heads. None of the pigment-based printers I've had have ever had a clog.

Re: Printer reccomendations
This goes beyond the original questions, - but I've never known about the principal differences in the printer head technologies between Epson on one end and Canon & HP on the other. Some PDMLers might find it interesting. https://largeformatscanners.com/blog/4142/What-is-a-print-head-and-how-does-it-work- I don't know if that difference is applicable to the printers segment we are discussing here or only to the wide-format (17"+ or 24"+) printers (also sometimes called "poster printers" or even "plotters").

Re: Printer reccomendations
Godfrey, That information that the printer has an ink-changing cycle is interesting. But what is actually done during that cycle? I assumed that having both blacks simultaneously spares you from any ink waste, and what I am reading from your suggests (if I understood it correctly), that could be a wrong assumption. But I am still curious, - what do they actually do? Purge the nozzles from one black and initialize them with the other one? That would mean that despite having both black cartridges installed at the same time, they are multiplexing the head nozzles. But why? Why wouldn't they have separate sets of nozzles, just considering each black as a separate color (like they do for Light Black and Light-Light Black [LK and LLK])?

Re: Printer reccomendations
I found that the break even point for prints is about 8x10, especially using the bargain Illford Gallery paper I picked up a few years back, it worked out to about 10¢ per sheet, which even with ink costs made an 8x10, or, 8 1/2 x 11 really, considerably less expensive than any of the local printers would charge. If I need to print anything smaller even Milford Photo can make any standard size print up to 5x7 for less than I can*. At $1.00 a sheet of more for paper I'm still able to make 8x10s for less, and I have at least nominal control over every step in the process from camera to print. *That is except for 4x6 proofs, until I run out of the Canon glossy paper that someone gave me a couple of years ago. I don't make a lot of those and even with the free paper I think I spend more on ink for the 2x6s than they would cost me at Walmart.

After a prolonged bout of self-butt-kicking, I discarded the lot and have never been happier. When I got back into photography about 12 years ago, I asked a friend about prints. He said he had them done at Costco, it costs less per print than doing them himself and they have a better printer than he'd ever be able to afford. On top of that, they publish the ICC color profiles. About a month ago, the local Costco closed down their photo center, so it's no longer a thirty minute wait and a 15 minute drive to pick up prints. Fortunately, the Costco near my current jobsite still has photo printing.

Re: PSEO: From hiking in New Hampshire
Love that shot. Excellent composition. Now I'm imagining the added depth if shot with a chrome, even a 645 size. *sigh* -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

robber fly with damselfly
Last week I saw these two on a stalk and I didn't realize immediately what was happening. When I tried to shoot closer they disappeared in one flight. Robber flies stab and inject toxins which paralyze their victims. https://flic.kr/p/2gjNrT5 Henk -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
