Re: [Digital BW] MIS FS + MediaStreet G4?

2003-06-02 by Bob Michaels

Alex, Jerry convinced me to try using the G4 black along with my MIS
FSN inks. It worked with no problems. But, I visually just could not
see appreciable higher density in the black than I was getting with
the MIS black. I'm switching back to the MIS Eboni black so I won't
have those lingering fading concerns.
