Look at this not quite released manga. Note, the "available on these devices" clearly lists various eInk Kindles, like the Paperwhite. This is not usual to this title, feel free to check others suggested below it that are already out and you'll see the same thing. I have in the past downloaded them on my Kindle PW direct from the cloud.
I don't believe that you read what I posted. I said that titles made with the old Kindle Comic Creator can be distributed to all devices. It doesn't matter WHEN it was published; what matters is what software was used to make the file. I have customers that use us for other types of publishing that are still using KCC and KKBC for their DIY books, for this reason--so that the books can still have eInk distribution.

Do you happen to have insider knowledge, about how this file was created, specifically? Do you know what this publisher used, to make that file? When you download it, what format are you downloading to your eINK?

ETA: For example, this book, by the same artist: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...api_tkin_p1_i0 says "readable on any device," but if you try to download a sample, that's flatly untrue. You can't download to a 1stGen Fire, a K2 Kindle, KC Reader, K4Mac. None of those can read that file. A first-gen Fire can't?????

Hmmmmm...so, I guess "Read on Any Device" doesn't actually mean that.
