Digital BW, The Print

As I just wrote a few minutes ago, the only thing I can figure is the 
two people who sent me the images were not yet up to speed with the 
printers. 

I read Michaels Reichmann's review as well and that is why I was a 
bit taken back when I saw the prints. I think that I will reserve 
final judgement once I see some more and people have had a good 
amount of time to work with the software and inks.

I was told by Daniel at Colorbyte that the 7600 and their RIP is 
doing amazing things. Maybe I can get Daniel to send me some print 
examples. That may be a better example.
