Digital BW, The Print

I don't think that any of Cone inksets rely to "a toner ink" like MIS' VM
inkset - I base my view to the q-tip (cotton buds) test I did in order to
check ink densities before priming my CIS; there was nothing like a blue
toner ink among them -  it is just how they design the inks (specific
pigments per density/ink?).

My problem is mostly about the "amount of ink" sprayed on the paper - I
don't have any tonality and/or screen matching problems (maybe
not-so-pleasing-muddy-like-hue in %90-70 gap but that is bearable - it may
be an ink problem too); your workflow uses "Heavyweight Matte" paper setting
in the Epson driver and unfortunately the most up-to-date driver doesn't
supply any "Archival Matte" paper setting (if it had, I would have certainly
tried it) so maybe this is the source of my problem.

Anyway, I still couldn't manage to make a decent print with PiezographyBW. I
think I will follow Peter's suggestion and wait for the new Piezography
software...

Regards,
Loris.
