Don,

I am going to hazard a guess that perhaps you were wondering about books on
the topic of inkjet printing with "quad" or grayscale ink sets. If that was
your question, I am not aware of any at the moment. No doubt we will see on
at some point but the technology is changing so rapidly anything written
today would be pretty out of date by the time it was published.

The process of using 4 different hued inks for reproducing photographs with
off-set lithography is commonly called "quadratone" printing.
