Re: [Digital BW] Re: MIS Inks vs Lyson Small Gamut

2003-06-09 by Kip Babington

I too am looking for good quality B&W on glossy papers, and THOUGHT I read, 
when it was first announced, that the new Piezo stuff is supposed to work 
on glossy.  I've got the new MIS UltraTone pigments and they do work on 
glossy paper, so it is technically possible.  Anybody else remember the way 
I do about the new Piezo, or know the opposite?

Cheers,
Kip
