That post seemed to be complaining about the lack of a light black ink. That
means dots further apart, but with 1.5pl dots, that may not be an issue. It
doesn't say anything about neutrality. However, it sounds like it's just a
wide version of the R800. Has anyone here used the R800 for B&W with the
stock inks?
