Re: [Digital BW] MIS FS vs FS Neutral on H. Photo Rag

Bernd,

That is pretty interesting. I also find that the MIS FS is a bit warmer on
the Photo Rag 308. I love it on William Turner and GE.  The MIS FS Neutral
on the otherhand is a bit cool for my tastes on Photo Rag, but put it on
William Turner and it is very exciting!  Unfortunately I ran out of WT two
weeks ago. I had ordered 10 boxes but it is now a week late. My dealer said
I should have it Monday.

I also tried the MIS FS Neutral on Hawk Mountain Merlin. Merlin is a bit
warmer than H. PR 308 and it looked very nice, although the blacks were
better on the Hahnemuhle papers. I don't know how Hahnemuhle does it, their
blacks are the best.,

Mike

Mike et al ( who have tested the new MIS FS Neutral ink):
I have always been satified with the tonal match of  MIS FS and
the Hahnem\ufffdhle German Etching and W. Turner papers, which
are not as brilliant white as EAM but a bit warm.

On the other hand I had a problem with MIS FS and the final
version of Photo Rag. I found MIS SF to warm for this very white
paper and prefered to print on a preliminary version of PR (which
was as warm as GE - but is out of stock now).
Since the advent of FS Neutral ink I\ufffdm looking forward to trying it
with Photo Rag. Will it be a better match ??

Bernd
