Digital BW, The Print

Hello Vic,

Congrats on the new 2200.  You'll like it.


>So it (Photo Black) must be a different ink .... Right?

Yes.


>But is it still a pigment ink?  

I think so.


>Is it as 'archival' as the Matte Black?

I think so.


>Same Dmax?

Better on glossy, worse on matte.  It's also warmer than MK (Eboni is
cooler than MK).


>DOES IT MATTER which I use?  

Yes, if you want good results.  Use MK or Eboni on matte paper, PK on
glossy.


>will it work out using the Photo Black and Light Black to print BO? 

No.  BO means "Black Only", not "Black and Light Black", else we'd be
calling it BLB instead of BO.



>Now I've got to go back and read all that stuff I've collected 
>about this kind of printing!  Clayton, your stuff is first on my 
>re-read list!  CARBON INK PRINTS here we come!  

Have fun!


Regards,
Clayton
