Digital BW, The Print

Ken,

Those results sound more like Piezo/Sundance that MIS-FS. If you look in
folder:

Files > Ink Sets > MIS > MIS FS

on the group's homepage you will find some jpegs of scans of FS step wedges.
Try the FS to FS-N comparison. Opening this in PS I get very neutral
readings in the shadows and as I move up scale R dominates followed by G and
the B. The overall tone should be yellow warm. Keep in mind that MIF-FS
warms up quite a bit with time.

The 2200 prints I have seen are more neutral than MIS-FS but I did not like
them as much. Personal taste.
