Table 2.1-1 Model classification The series are also classified into 2 ink types, namely, the gloss ink type and the matte ink type, depending on the black ink cartridge selected when the printer is first started up. The printer control software determines the model by the product name in the device ID, and the ink type by the model information request command (~H(IMM).
