[PrintOwners] New High Speed Ink Jet

[xeroid]

Kelly, you are close ...

The site www.continuousink.com you point out is using mass produced products 
from china and they simply are not good enough.  Almost everything you will 
find on the net is just not reliable enough.  I have been fine tuning my 
project over the past few years and am fortunate to have had the Engineering 
Department at a local University study and improve upon areas of my system I 
felt needed it.

You are right, same print engines, same ink, produces consistant results 
across the entire set up.  Picking out a PMS colour is a matter of simply 
selecting it.
