Digital BW, The Print

Thanks Paul!  I use EAM/EEM most of the time, so your information is very 
useful. I also use Mediastreet Royal plush for large prints.  I think some 
have said it is equivalent to photorag.  The blacks are great on RP. 

I used up my old stock of EAM, and have noticed that newer boxes of EAM/EEM 
have less satisfying blacks.  It seems to be both a slightly lower density, 
and a slightly warmer color.  I recall some discussion about this a while 
back.  Was this a temporary variation in your experience, or does it appear 
we have to live with this from now on?  It doesn't take much density change 
to make a pronounced difference between prints.

This talk about ultrachrome black with the VM inkset is intriguing.  I saw a 
sample print from the 2200 on mat paper.  The blacks looked very good.
