Digital BW, The Print

Thank you so much for your advice! I live in NYC and
just called the biggest suppliers of camera/digital
equiptment and they never heard of the eboni ink??
which company makes it? I looked on the site to buy it
online and it says that the system is only if you have
an RIP? can i just buy and use an eboni ink cartridge
on it's own without an RIP? seems strange the biggest
suppliers in NYC wouldn't have it. What is the best
way to describe this ink to see if they carry it. I'd
rather get it in the store if i can.
Thank you!!!
Julie
