Re: [Digital BW] 1 more question from a future convert

2003-10-18 by Johnny Eades

Hello Eric,

I have been where you are right now a year ago and have tried many 
avenues to achieve BW prints that do not have any color tints to 
them, and I finally went to Quadtone printing with inks from MIS inks 
and really got pretty good at it. I got some very good advice and 
hints and ideas from the folks on this newsgroup. Today I am using 
the software from PiezographyBW and the inkset from MIS inks called 
Full spectrum Neutral that uses the Epson driver. I got the inks 
today and have not had time to really work with them, and won't till 
the middle of next week some time. I'll update folks on the list when 
I do get to it.

Your friend in Photography,

Johnny Eades
