Re: [Digital BW] Re: Neutral BW Ultrchromes via duotones

Hi,
I just printed a sheet of business cards using this technique and there's still a green cast - but not as bad as the blue I was getting before. I guess I'll be sticking to Black Only or QTR (when I have a PC capable of running XP - mine's only a Celeron 600).

Sorry to have raised your hopes,
Richard
