Hello fellow BW Fine Art printers,

I have to chime in and say that Paul has done an outstanding job of outlining and dissecting the black and white Carbon printing process. I poured over the papers and, though confusing at first read, I eventually fulfilled the learning curve through some tinkering and now feel invincible in my printing.

I recently had my fine art portfolio prints reviewed in New York where two of the reviewers said that the b/w prints I showed were the most beautiful, detailed, and intricate prints they had EVER seen--these are veterans in the industry too. This assures my opinion that I've successfully surpassed my darkroom prints.

In regards to Epson versus QTR drivers, I admit I'm actually a bit more pleased with the Epson. This could be a result of my hardware (r1800 with Eboni 6 printed on Epson Hot Press Bright). QTR works very well too, I just prefer the Epson at this point. This may very well change when I change to a larger printer.

Paul, keep up the great research and thanks for all of your insight.

Thanks
Cameron
