Digital BW, The Print

Paul,
I'm once more amazed at how detailed your answers are. 
Anyway, one thing is not yet clear to me: is the difference between the
Piezo and the Epson print you compared due to the drivers or to the inks? In
a previous thread you wrote that smooth B&W prints can be obtained with 3
inks only, and therefore the 4th ink could be used for toning, but maybe
there is a *small* advantage in using 4 inks. If this is the case, given
that I do not dislike the warm tone of the original MIS quads, I'd probably
be better off with the new Full spectrum quads.
 
Thanks, Alessandro Pardi

Subject: [Digital BW] Just installed my MIS VM - dots in highlights?



Shaun asked whether others could see dots in the highlights of the MIS VM
inkset when used on an 1160.

So, on my 1160, the Piezo print does indeed have slightly smoother
highlights.  However, the Epson driver produces slightly smoother mid-tones
and dark-tones.
