Digital BW, The Print

Bernd, thanks. I'm convinced. I've seen FS via Cone there is a slight
increase in contrast - an easy fix, and for the price... I've got some on
order.Would you recomend VM for an 1160 (4 colour printer)?

Julian,
if you print MIS FS with the Cone driver there is virtually no
difference in quality to the Piezo inks, though the tone is slightly
cooler.
If you print MIS FS with the Epson driver on an 1160 you may see
dots, but only with a magnifier. In a normal view-distance there is
no difference in quality
If you print MIS VM with Paul\ufffds curves on an 1270/80/90 in the
2880 dpi mode you don\ufffdt see dots any longer, even with the
magnifier.
These prints are great. The only problem may be:  changing big
files from greyscale to RGB is time and memory consuming,
Printing big files in 2880 dpi mode is also rather time
consuming (like printing on a 3000 with the 5.1.3e update of the
Cone driver).
(Sample prints will be on their way tomorrow)
