Digital BW, The Print

I'm not sure if the septone approach makes any practical difference to
the UT7 way of doing it. Both are basically mixing warm and cool inks to
achieve the tones you want. 

The one theoretical advantage I could see with the septones is that is
has a dedicated driver for the inkset and profiles for a wide variety of
papers. I haven't seen any reports about the quality of this driver so I
have no idea how well it actually works.
