Digital BW, The Print

Matt I have only printed about a dozen prints of any kind with my i960
having just last weekend gotten my computer and printer setup setup!

I doubt I will try any B&W printing with it as I bought it only for
it's high quality color prints I just really liked the way they
snapped off the page compared to anything I saw from an epson printer. 

I bought an Epson 890 (had to have a friends son buy it in Anchorage
and mail it to me to find a new one!) to use with UT-2 ink for all my
B&W needs. 

It does look like there is a Black inl only option within the driver
but I have not had an opertunity to try it yet.

Thanks I was planning on using the Canon papers for all my "keeper's)
I was just looking for something a bit cheaper to use for the bulk.
The wife and I shoot nearly 200 rolls of film a year when we are happy
so there tends to be a lot of stuff she wants for albums that does not
at 4X6 need to be super high quality as no one ever spends more then 3
seconds on any one print before they flip the page to the next one.

Thanks she's picking up a package of the Costco stuff for me today
I'll see what it's like.

PS the five display prints I have printed at 6X9 with it made me very
happy I bought it for me color work. I don't need big prints so it is
perfect.
