Digital BW, The Print

Olaf,

I've tried the Lyson Darkroom Range Gloss with the Lyson Quad Black dye 
inks.  The paper really does come very close to the appearance of an 
air dried silver gelatine print and has a very high dmax (I was getting 
2.6+ with the inks limited at 75% using QTR and an Epson 1270).  The 
major problem with the Quad Black inks is metamerism, which is quite 
severe.  The new Daylight Darkroom  inkset is supposed to minimize 
metamerism, but I haven't seen any actual prints yet for confirmation.
