When printing an image that contains both color and black data on plain paper, (such as black text
on a color picture), with a Stylus COLOR II or a Stylus 1500, EPSON recommends printing
black with composite black by mixing C+M+Y inks., This black ink can mix with the CMY inks
for all other paper types, in the Stylus COLOR II and Stylus 1500.
