Re: [Digital BW] advice

Sergio,

One of the things you need to decide is what size prints do you want to make
in B&W and in color.

The first thing that occurs to me is that you need a printer dedicated to
B&W and one dedicated to color.

If 13x19" is big enough then I would suggest either MIS FS inks with the
Piezo driver or MIS VM inks using Paul Roark's separation curves with the
Epson driver on an Epson 1280 printer. If not you need to consider the 3000
or the 7000 printers.

For color post your question of the Archival Color list:
