    Hi Kev. I started using ITL Evosol in April 2008. It is a good alternative ink to the Roland Eco sol Max or Mutoh Ultra ink. It works very well with you existing profile and dries very fast. Comparing the Roland Ecosol max and you could hardly tell the deference. Two weeks ago I received a 2nd batch of 20 litres.

    How do you find reds etc, just switched from ITL EcoMax ink which produced nice vibrant reds at 100% M 100% Y now i get a brownish red nowhere near to the red i got before
    Using Versaworks with Oracal media & roland profiles

    The yellow is very strong so it 100%yellow & 100% magenta give a bit orange-red.

    plus the following quality settings in versawok
    Media Type: GVWG
