Thanks Daniel.

I also came across this site concerning BO printing and he give some 
in-sight to paper-ink tones of the ones he has tried.

http://www.cjcom.net/articles/digiprn5.htm

Anyone wanting a "film look" should try BO printing and checking out 
that site.

The BO's I tried lastnight I REALLY liked, EXCEPT, I couldn't get ris 
of some "banding".


Thanks,

Scott
