Antonis and Martin,

This group has been desperate to be born for some time now. Thank you so
much for giving it life.

I have invited Paul Roark to join the list, but I think he may be on
vacation. He too has made a phenomenal contribution to the advancement of
our BW endeavors, but the Piezo list has never been the appropriate forum to
discuss it. This is!

I'm hoping Paul will choose to join us, and I'm quite confident he will, but
in the meantime I'd like to quickly drop his link, as an introduction to an
alternative ink/process that at least I, Paul himself, and Jerry Olson use
(there may be other's, I don't know).

Although Paul has adapted his "method" to the Epson 1160, and 1280, he has
generously decided to keep this system "open", and free!!!! so that users
may adapt it to other printers and papers.

So, without further ado, please check the link below for more details.

PS, for those of you who have yet to take the plunge into quadtone or
hextone printing, or anybody who want's to save a bunch on future ink
purchases, Paul's method will save you a bundle over the Piezo inks and
driver, as it utilizes the Epson driver and MIS inks.

Things are getting very exciting on this list, and I'm so happy we don't
have to "behave" ourselves in somebody else's house, or have somebody dampen
our enthusiasm for "Alternative Methods".

Happy days are here again, the sky is blue and clear again........
