Re: [Digital BW] Re: Advice needed. My options w/ a 1270?

2002-03-30 by Jerry Olson

Thanks Mike, 

I haven't heard of their "Condor" paper before.

Jerry

I'm using the Generations Enhanced Black, which is just a tad blacker
than the Double Density.

I've not tried to use just the black ink, but if the paper has texture,
my 1280 might just carry it off.  

Is this paper pure white, or cream colored?
