Digital BW, The Print

Hello Roy,

>Do you have any test using the MIS beside Eboni?  

No, I plan to try UT7 when it's available.  I suspect that Septone
uses some dye for its toning, and hope/expect that UT7 will give
better results.

Ladies and gentlemen!  Welcome to the grand opening of Acme Fine Art
Gallery.  Please check your loupes at the door <g>.

Very interesting.  That fits with Paul's statement about finely milled
carbon particles.
