Subject: Re: [Leica] Off topic: Quad tone cartridge for Photo EX?

Dear Tim,

(sorry if any of this was covered by earlier emails, I could not  find
Nathan's email)

Also considering to "go quadtone" but I was wondering about the choice of
printers : the 1200 or the 1520. The 1520 is older technology but looks more
robust.
I spook to the Dutch distributor who informed me that there were some
production problems with the cartridges at Lyson and advised me to wait to
the end of January before deciding about buying a printer.

The 1520 is getting very cheap but will they continue to make the
cartridges? Unless there is the possibility to refill?

" There is also something of a learning curve with quadtone inks
>(including refilling if you don't want to go broke - again, I'd rather fill
>4 than six ink chambers!)."

Where do you get your supplies from?  These things are somewhat difficult to
get hold of in beautifull Tuscany!

Ciao
