"That was my original thought some months ago.  But, the inksets that Paul is 
working toward are certainly different enough from other 'ink jet' inksets, 
that they need some differentiation in terminology.  "Carbon" seems to be 
descriptive, and sets these inksets apart from other inkjet inksets.  Got a better 
idea?"

I attended the Affordable Art Fair opening here in Manhattan Wednesday, and a 
Manhattan B+W photo dealer, Laurence Miller, had two handsome B+W prints, 
13x40 each, on display described as "pigment prints."   When I asked Miller if 
that meant "inkjet," he claimed not to know the exact technology but said it was 
a "new process" and that the artist was working exclusively in the medium.   
Read:   It's inkjet.   Anyone want to follow Miller's lead and call them 
pigment prints?
