Digital BW, The Print

Yes.  Those with IJC or QTR are trying various spots.  With the Epson driver
I'll test the Y position.  If it works there I'll write some curves for it.

Curves can easily give a cool print from that inkset.  I'm sure the
RIPs (or should we be calling them "printer utilities"?) could easily
print cool prints from the UT7.

spray but will probably go to Glop in all the glossy inksets.  (I need
