Re: [Digital BW] Re: New Eboni inks

2003-03-24 by Jerry Olson

I Don't know, Doug.  When you order the eboni ink, it doesn't tell you
if its for glossy or matte papers. I've been told that ultratones are
completely compatible with all other MIS inksets. There is a blurb on
the MIS site that says they are changing to eboni black ink, and that
whatever inkset you order as of March 3 will be the eboni black. It
mentions nothing about glossy or matte. I didn't even know there were
two eboni inks.
