So I joined the Kirkland revolution - with BO!

2005-01-12 by hill14701

I had a relative purchase a box - amazing stuff.  I've been using it with my ancient 860 
running BO with Epson's original (dye) black.  The tone is beautiful - even though the 
prints will not be as long lived as the pigment counterparts.  The tone and texture is very 
similar, yet distinct from my Ilford FB prints.

My question is this - is anyone using Kirkland Glossy with MIS Photo Black in a Black Only 
capacity?  I'm interested in your thoughts on print tone as well as print durability (scuffing, 
etc.)  Mostly I am interested in any form of bronzing when using BO.

I've tried the paper with UT-FSN with the eboni channel removed in curves, but am not 
pleased with the bronzing - and I have no desire to spray.  That being said, the print color 
is delightful with FSN and would highly reccomend this ink/paper combination for anyone 
who sprays.

Thanks for any input,

Don
