Re: IJC and Ilford Smooth Pearl was Re: [Digital BW] Re: Oriental Fiber-Based Inkjet Paper--Initial Comments

You have to use an RC compatible inkset...which at this point is either the
Ultrachromes (epson 2200,7600,9600,10600) or MIS's relacement inks or
Ultratones, which are also RC compatible.  Both of these inksets work well
with the Ilford.  The key is that if you want to do BW, you will still need
to spray the prints...not because of dusting...there isn't a problem with
that...but rather because of bronzing.  Two light coats of Krylon Kamar
Varnish eliminates about 95% of the bronzing with the Ultrachromes as
printed using Ink Jet Control and my 2200.
