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

Yup, this is absolutely true. Given a good printer, photoshop, and a 
really good file, I believe 10 photographers would
come up with ten different prints, all of them quite nice.  There are SO 
many ways to print a negative!

Anybody ever given any thought to what will replace inkjet printing? 
(Just for fun) :)
