Digital BW, The Print

QTR. I can get what I want visually from both HP and Epson OEM ink sets. But it is not consistent and I know it can be done better and with smoother tones with Quadtone inks.
I have used mostly the HP inks and they just decide to careen off the road for no particular reason once in a while. I'll have a nice brown print with a strip through it 2 points more toward green. Besides, better inks for less money is a strong draw.
