Digital BW, The Print

In going back thru the archives concerning the UT inks, the concern 
is that the Eboni(only) MAY have clogging issues IF you DO NOT 
clean/purge the dye inks out. I did not head this advise at first, 
but have since did a cleaning(windex method, soaking up the older ink 
off the pad, etc.)and have not had a real problem. I would classify 
this, too me, as more of a nussance than a problem. The results, far 
out way the "problem". If you have chosen the Photo Black, this is 
not an issue, as the are the other inks in the set. As I said, 
this "problem" only concerns the Eboni ink.
