Re: [Digital BW] Re: WHEN will we get simple, reliable BW printing??

Peter, what can I say?! Having tried all manner of BW I no longer use
inkjets to print - I output to Lambda. I've found a lab with a perfect
profiled setup and I get prints I'm happy with. If you have the PS chops and
a fully managed workflow - use inkjet (I use MIS FS and a modifed Randall
workflow) to proof, and then output to Lambda. I spent far too long
buggering around with workflows and inks and paper. No more!
