Re: [Digital BW] MIS Double Density Black

2002-09-11 by Jerry Olson

I tried it some time ago, and it is not as black as the enhanced black
from media street's generations inks. The Generations 4 Enhanced black
is the blackest black available, but it has 25 percent dye in it. Not as
archival as 100% pigment, but it doesn't fade fast either. It made 3
months with no fading in my sunny south window.
