RE: [Digital BW] MIS Ultra-tone inks

Jeff, you might consider buying the small 2 oz. bottles of the Ultratone
inks and a set of virgin cartridges.  It won't cost you much more than a set
of preloaded carts, and they are quite easy to load yourself.  This inkset
is great!  Much better than the original quad and VM inks that I had been
using previously.  You really should give them a try.

Regards,

Bob

Hey Everyone;

Does anyone know what the status of the MIS ultra-tone inks are? On the 
MIS web site they are still listed as "experimental" and only available 
in bottles. I would like to buy a set in carts to give them a try.

I did make some nice prints with the VM set...printing mostly with the 
medium warm and warm curves. However, after these prints where exposed 
to indirect light for a short time they warmed to great degree... much 
MUCH greater then the moderate increments of the medium warm -vs- the 
warm curve. For me that does not make this inkset usable. I have heard 
that when printing with the more neutral curves or cool curves the 
prints do not warm much.
