Digital BW, The Print

Jeff,

It is not a reversal. Paul only tested the spare tire.

It is simple really. The full PiezoTone inkset is not made from the
black ink anyway, as reported here. That is why. Paul tests only the
black inks when he did so. The PiezoTone black warmed as he claimed in
the 50% patch but that 50% of the black does not print with the
software so it is even irrelevant.  

Paul says he does not intend to mislead but thought that the
PiezoTones would all be diluted from the black because he has
knowledge that MIS do it that way. Cone does not do it that way. The
full PiezoTone set does not fade warm, but the MIS full set does fade
warm and this even Paul admitted to earlier. And this is what the
users of it are reporting too. They say in the same time of use the
MIS inks and the older PiezographyBW inks both would fade to the warm
but the PiezoTones do not.
