Digital BW, The Print

I get pretty good prints using Tyler's curves on my mac.

I did have some posterization problems for a while using Paul's
curves. I also had a problem with a bad batch of ink - are you using
carts or bulk inks? 

And are you using OSX or OS9? It seems to be a little harder to use
Paul's curves with the OSX driver, as there is no "automatic" mode.
(Though the "photo realistic" mode works ok)

Do you get good stepwedges?
