Cone Sepia and Selenium inks

2003-01-05 by eleanor77027 <elliebrown@aol.com>

I have been struggling with what to do with digital black and white
printing (I'm 
a silver printer at heart) for a long time and with the advent of the
new cone 
piezotone carbon sepia and selenium inks I will probably sell my
darkroom 
equipment in the near future.  the tone of these inks is nothing
short of 
exquisite on the Ham. Photo Rag 308 and the Kodak Ultima Satin.  The 
Kodak paper allows the inks to dry and the ink doesn't rub off but
this smooth 
surface satin paper does need to be sprayed or brushed with a
lacquer.  and 
of course the Photo Rag 308 is awesome.

My 1280 printer is working well with these inks and I haven't
developed any 
serious clogs like I did with the original Piezo inks.  eleanor brown
