I was asleep for the discussions about optical brighteners.   Can someone 
explain to me the case against them, apart from aesthetic preference, if any, as 
they are used in a paper like Entrada?   I appreciate that this is one of 
those questions that has probably been beaten to death on this list, so an offlist 
reply would be fine, if someone will indulge me.

Acting entirely on faith, I was the third buyer to place an order for the 
Septone package for the 2200.   The nice lady at inkjetgoodies.com swears they 
are shipping on Monday.   I bought some of the Entrada with brighteners (geez, 
just like laundry soap!) to go with it.   How stupid was that?
