Re: [Digital BW] Epson R800 BW results

anyone doing any fade testing on these yet?  My concern is that while 
being able to tone prints is great, doesn't the possiblility of 
horrendous tonal shifts exist with this approach.  With a quadtone 
approach your grays will wash out, even with variable mix you'll just 
go warm, but with mixed color b&w images it seems you could go 
anywhere.

just thinking...
