Lyson Continuous Ink Systems (CIS)

London based Denbry Repros has installed a CIS with custom ICC profiles for its Epson 2100 desktop inkjet printer and is already seeing excellent results in terms of speed, cost and quality:

High Speed Printing:
Says Richard Harwood-Stamper, managing director of Denbry Repros:

"At high speed, with a res. of 720dpi and the print head laying down the ink on both passes, I can produce an A4 print in around 2 minutes, depending on image content, effectively cutting the printing time in half. Again, when set at 1440dpi, I can produce superb quality prints, much faster than before."

Cost Savings:
"At a time when all companies need to continually reevaluate operational costs to remain competitive, this is another major benefit with the new system."

Exceptional Quality:
"At this resolution the quality and accuracy of the final print is brilliant and even to the professional eye they have the appearance of original photographs. Another major advantage is that the new generation Fotonic archival ink range also dries very quickly, which is critical from a workflow point of view. In addition, the bronzing we previously experienced with other inks has disappeared completely."

HEATHER ANGEL
"For my wildlife and plant studio I constantly strive for natural - and accurate - colour reproduction. Lyson Fotonic Professional inks give me simply stunning results. One moment they reproduce vibrant multi-coloured Texan wild flowers, the next delicate pastel-toned icebergs. The results have not only far exceeded my expectations, but also given me a totally new concept for promoting and selling my images of the natural world in the years ahead."

...For her new major traveling exhibition "Natural Visions". Heather has produced each display print using Lyson Fotonic Professional Inks for widest colour range and display longevity, Lyson 310gsm Standard Fine Art media to achieve superb vibrancy and impact, and made extensive use of the Lyson ICC profiles to ensure colour accuracy from the original images. Heather's A3 plus prints are produced on her Epson Stylus Color 1160 and her A2 prints on an Epson Stylus Color 3000.

MIKE HARVEY-PENTON
"Having been a keen amateur photographer for many years I found it very difficult to produce a top quality colour print in darkroom conditions. Fortunately, thanks to Lyson Fotonic Inks and Papers, my troubles are over. I can now produce from scanned negatives and transparencies outstanding colour prints. "My personal favourite in the Lyson paper range is the Standard Fine Art paper and when using in conjunction with the Lyson Fotonic Inks the results are stunning. It is great to be able to produce top quality work from the comfort of my own home. "If you're looking to produce state-of-the-art colour prints, you will be as delighted as I am with the Lyson range of products."

Mike Harvey-Penton, Konica Photographer of the Year 1992, Agfa Colour Photographer of the Year 1994, Ilford Black & White Photographer of the Year 1997, Runner-up Amateur Photographer of the Year 1998 ...Mike almost exclusively uses Lyson 310gsm Standard Fine Art media to achieve the extremely vibrant landscapes that are such an important part of his work shown most recently at "Focus On Imaging" at the NEC and at the Scottish Professional Photographic and Imaging Exhibition in Edinburgh. A3 format prints produced on Mike's own Epson Stylus Photo EX.

			Lyson Small Gamut Toneable Inksets
			50-60 years certified indoor display life Toneable to produce any tint required including split tones Excellent tonal range

	JACK LOWE "My working methods have turned on their head since being introduced to the Lyson inksets, both Fotonic and Small Gamut. The Small Gamut inksets, once mastered, are incredibly easy to use and it seems bizarre in hindsight that such a simple idea hasn't been introduced before now. The almost infinite range of toning effects really are as simple to implement as the advertising suggests, producing both toned and true monochrome finished prints of a staggering quality.
	The real joy, however, lies in being able to have the confidence to bring the printing process (a dry one at that!) back in-house and no longer pay sums of money to a lab, which are often extortionate."Jack uses two Epson 1160 printers, one for colour work and the other for Small Gamut monochrome archival fine art prints. He favours Lyson professional gloss, lustre and standard fine art media for his Small Gamut limited edition prints. His maximum print size is 13" x 19" using Lyson A3+ media.

Service and Support

Hello John,

Thank you so much for the information. May I take this chance to say yet again to the MD how impressed I am with the Marrutt service and courtesy and contact care! It is rare these days.

May I also say after a number of months of playing with refillable cartridges (and Lyson ink) with very poor results on my R800 I ordered the CIS kit from you. It arrived in 24 hours worked within half an hour perfect!!

Clear instructions, well packed complete kit, excellent service all round.

I should also say I used to be MD of a number of companies so know the difficulties of good service!

Many thanks,

David Wallace

Just to say I faxed an order through late yesterday morning for an assortment of materials and they have just arrived all present and correct from Sussex to Perth in 24 hours: well done and thank you for excellent service.

- Customer with Lyson Continuous Ink System for Epson R2400

In the end 5 lights kept coming on so when Jake from Lyson rang me he was keen to help. I went to the work place and Jake very kindly gave me a new set of cartridges which I have now charged and as I e-mail you now all lights are out and we are printing again.

Thank you very much for your help and all I can say is that every single one of you has gone out their way to help me.

Wonderful

Eric Milner

I have heard of speedy service but a two hour turnaround from order to despatch is very impressive.
Thank you , looking forward to receive the goods

Dear John,

On behalf of the Disabled Photographers' Society (DPS), my grateful thanks for the generous quantity and variety of inkjet paper which arrived here last week. Perfect timing as I was able to unpack the two big parcels to take the contents to our AGM on Sunday last.

The support given by Marrutt Digital is much appreciated by the DPS. With profit margins being squeezed ever tighter it is great to find such willing support from your company.

I shall make sure you receive due recognition for your valued help whenever and wherever possible.

With best wishes,

John Miller FDPS LRPS

Hullo Paul,

You are brilliant! Your solution for fixing a non operating Epson 1290 using the 'Reset Procedure' worked like a dream and the printer is now happily chugging away as it used to. Incidentally before contacting you I had tried to get it repaired at an Epson Agent shop in Salisbury but they said they couldn't do it and the printer would have to be returned to Epson!

Thank you again,

Best wishes,

Brian Marshall

John,

Order placed 2.30pm Friday, delivered 9am Saturday. Fantastic service !

Thank you.

Your online service I can not fault, either with ease of use or delivery. One of my gripes with buying online is that with some companies there is often no phone number to contact a living person and it takes a lot
of time to find one. You put a phone number down and it is always answered straight away, for me that's a big plus.

Regards
Phillip Burrough

------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank You - You are always so efficient and quick, that's why i stick with your company

Once again I write to complement you on your excellent service and informative website. Your prices too are well placed in the market and with such a first class turnaround of orders there is no reason to even think of ordering elsewhere.

Keep up the good work.

Nowadays large companies do not appear to want to help when problems occur, or so we are led to believe. I can categorically state this is not the case when Lyson and Nazdar are the companies in question.

My problem was a difficult one so I rang John at Marrutt's, he put me on to Adam Slack at Nazdar in Stockport. Because I live close by I was able to take my printer down to the Nazdar premises where Adam and his team were able to help me with my problems. I must recommend Adam for his professionalism and attitude to customers, he is very busy but still finds the time to make a person feel that any problem is worth sorting out.

Over two days his team solved my problems completely and all I can do is show my
appreciation by pointing out what a competent and efficient person Adam is, backed up by his team of course.

Thanks to Adam, Sandra and Alan for helping me in my hour of need and of course John for
initiating the start of the process.

I sign off a very satisfied and contented digitaliser, happy to use the Nazdar products knowing that
help is always at hand.

Mr. E.C.Milner.

Dear Paul and John

Heartfelt thanks to you and John for getting my printer working again so quickly. One of the best decisions I have ever made was to buy a continuous ink system from Marrutt. The inks are first rate but the support and service offered by you and John is without parallel.

What I appreciate so much is that no matter how busy you might be, every caller is greeted with courtesy, their concerns discussed patiently and their query dealt with promptly. It is a great pity that most other companies do not share your ethos and little wonder that you inspire such loyalty in your customers. You are one of a kind and your continuing success is well deserved, besides which, it is heartening to see the good guys winning.

It is true to say that if one wants the best one has to go to the best, and Marrutt is the best!

Thanks so very much again.

Yours sincerely

Jackie Castellano

Hi Sandra

I've been doing some work with R2400Lyson265gsmSatinSusie (I love the name!), and it is brilliant. I haven't had such fun printing for a long time. It is such a relief to feel confident about printer, Lyson CIS
and profile, not to mention the confidence that is starting to flow back to me. Thank you so much for your patience and help. You and John have been great.

Best wishes

Dear John Read,

Just a note to thank you for your help and support with the installation of the Lyson ink system. I thought it was going to be tricky and fiddly but with your phone talk through I now have it working well and I am looking forward to producing better and much cheaper prints. Should I need any future help I know it's just a phone call away.

Regards,

John Mccann

Dear John

A couple of months ago I rang you for advice with regards to a problem I was having with the Lyson CIS system for the Epson 1290 (I had inadvertently put the wrong ink in one of the chambers!!!) You then kindly advise me and sent me a syringe and tapered adaptor ( Ref: John/127421/0) at no cost to myself.

First I'd like to thank you for helping me get my system back up and running and secondly for supplying the syringe etc. at no cost to myself - its nice to (now rarely!) get this level of service from companies, you could have easily charged me but choose not to! So again I'd like to thank you and I shall certainly be using Marrutt again and recommending you to my friends and colleagues.

Cheers

Mr T. Lee

Email Subject: Second to none customer service

Dear John (Reed) and colleagues,

I simply wanted to express my thanks for all of your help, time and efforts in assisting me to resolve my printer profile settings earlier today. It’s clear that your commitment to extremely high levels of customer service is a genuine one that is sadly lacking in many other companies nowadays and I would have absolutely no reservations in recommending you and your colleagues.

Thank you so much for your efforts.

Kind regards and best wishes

Re: Lyson CIS System - Epson R2400

A brief note to say "thank you" for responding to my difficulty with the ink flow so quickly - I really appreciate your patience and attention when I made the journey to Uckfield.

All is now safely returned to its place in the office and the ink is flowing better than ever!

When I am not pressing the shutter (and getting frustrated with the difference between what I thought I saw and what the camera produced), I am involved in developing Customer Care programme's so can offer my congratulations to you and the team at Uckfield for putting the customer first. It really does make a difference and will generate high levels if customer loyalty in an increasingly competitive market place.

Thanks once again for looking after me.

Your sincerely

Dear John,

I just wanted to thank you all for the help you gave me with my printer problems when i came down to Marrutt. Not only was it a pleasure to come down and chat about presentation and photography, but your high level of expertise was very helpful and saved the day.

Yours sincerely

Matthew Ford

---------------------------------------------------------------

I should like to thank you for your excellent service in the past - I've always found the Marrutt site and telephone help very useful indeed - in fact, I would go so far as to say that it is an example to others of how things ought to be.

Best wishes

Dear John Read,

Very many thanks for sending the printing suggestions for use with your papers.

I was able to produce some excellent results with good tonal range and some improvement in the blacks.

Especially since using the "Manual- Roll" paper source, I at last found out how to access the "Watercolour Paper; Radient White" Media Type setting.( Before it was always in grey)

Again, with thanks,

Jon Rodger (George Rodger Photos)

Hello,
Many thanks for the reset code. it worked a treat. Am I glad that I chose your firm to deal with several years ago. Over the past years you have not only been very quick with your ink service you have always been extremely proficient with any help I have needed.

Once more many thanks,
Eric Saltmarsh

---------------------------------------------------------------

I am writing to thank you for all the help and support you gave me when I was installing the CIS on my R1800 printer. The customer service was excellent and the advice and help made the task that much easier. When I continued to have problems replacement cartridges were tried and unfortunately this did not solve the problem I was having. The complete system was replaced and the system worked beautifully. The inks themselves are of superb quality and now I have the system running I am looking forward to troublefree printing.
If many other companies had a good customer support as I recieved then there would not be so many aggrieved people.

I am pleased to be able to endorse both You, Marrutts and your products and service. I checked my computer and found that it was already set the way you suggested except for the fact that I could not find the Black point you referred to. This is probably due to my lack of knowledge, I am self taught and only learn the things I need to use.

My photography is another matter and dates back to 1956. The colours are excellent and I am delighted not to have to keep putting in those cartridges for £1 per ml. Thanks for all your help and I look forward to a few more years pleasure.

John Warner
