Clever, pretty cool what these new drivers will let us play with. All
it takes is an inquisitive mind. I recall Culbertson doing some
straight CMY tests with similar richness without K ink.
Also worth noting your setup probably used up to 300% total ink
without problems (I presume). Another example of letting that ink go
down, don't be stingy with it!
