Digital BW, The Print

Thanks Igor. I tried on a few different glossy paper. The black pigment 
from MIS, I think it is ebony, is easily wiped out or even wiped quite 
clean on certain glossy paper.

Though I mostly printed on matte surface, I observed that glossy 
surface, especially semi-glossy/semi matte/satin/luster, give us 
something aesthetically that 100% matte surface lacks.

Thanks,
Phil
