Digital BW, The Print

Hello Steve,

Glad to hear of your MIS GP/1290 sucess.  I tried the inks on my 1280 
without much sucess.  My problem was weak reds.  But.... I was using 
the inexpensive scanner-based ProfilePrism to make profiles.  That 
may have been my problem(?).  How are the reds with your DryCreek 
profiles?

I am encouraged sufficiently to try a proper professionaly made 
profile with this inkset.

Regards.

Shilesh
