#Deskjet Colour

Paul, the Inkmun Inks are merely refill inks and cleaner solution sets.
They give you mageta, cyan, yellow, and black to do a 4 color seperation.
You have to empty an original HP cartridge (do lots of printing), and then
clean out the ink that is hiding in the corners of the cartridge. Refill,
and away you go. (The process is a little bit labor intensive, but not any
big deal.) Of course, you have to do this 3 times, for each color. I just
use an original HP cartridge for the black pass, and save some hassle. I
use PageStream 2.1 for all desktop, (looking into ProVector) due to its
ease of use and great results, select 4 color seperation on output, and the
printer grabs a sheet. After the pass is complete, replace the cartridge
with the next color, and repeat. The order is Cyan,Magenta,Yellow ,Black.
Results are great. Full colour at 300 DPI. Spot color is a breeze. Just
pick mechanical, and PageStream will print each colour as a seperate pass.
Simple, and great results. The only hassle is waiting for cartridges to
empty. Once empty, you just keep refilling them. You can buy a full kit or
an individual colour/cleaner refill. Good Luck on your Printerquest… any
more questions, give a shout.

Boy, this is terrific news about color on a Deskjet, one happy puppy here!
I didn't quite understand your comment…
>>Spot color is a breeze. Just pick mechanical, and
>>Pagestream will print…
What is this mode (operation)? Is it a pagestream process or printer
function, I missed something (don't have a green visor and rolled up shirt
sleeves :)…).
Thanx again,
Paul
