This is a group for people who want to make black and white prints of 
their digital files.   There is a reason why it is NOT called 
the "INKJET" black and white printing forum.  Inkjet is not the only 
game in town.

There are many ways of making black and white prints from digital 
files.   Personally I prefer prints on photographic (silver emulsion) 
paper.  I believe that produces prints that are stable, nueutral, and 
free of metamerism to a degree that no current inkjet technology can 
approach.
