Hi,

Could I get you to send me or Paul Roark some 21-step wedges from your 2200
on Enhanced Matte with your current inks and then with the matte black inks?
I would love to get some spectrophotometer readings from the output of this
printer and to convince Paul to some comparative fade testing.

Thanks,
