Good grief no! I am saying that if the black doesn't clog on you, 
you probably won't have trouble with the rest of the Ultratones, in 
which case switching over completely would give you the option of 
printing on RC paper. Of course you would need to use the 
Photoblack, so if that's your main interest, you might want to test 
that for clogging instead of the  Eboni.
