Digital BW, The Print

After reading Reichmann's conclusion that B&W on the 2200 was so good right out of the box that he was retiring his Piezography system, I had a nagging memory that he had said something similar about the 1280. Actually, it was the 1270. Here's what he wrote in the 1270 review:

>I've found that the 1270 printer produces monochrome prints with
>essentially no colour cast. On Heavyweight Matt Paper, through
>a 4X loupe, they are virtually indistinguishable from a
>traditional silver print on matt paper. To the naked eye,
>completely so.

Clearly, his demands for B&W do not seem to be what many of the people on this list require. Therefore, we need some other judgments on this matter.
