Digital BW, The Print

The MIS PK is available already. It is the same as is used for the
7600/9600. You will find it at:

The MIS PK, however, is equally as warm as the Epson UC PK.
What may be of greater interest to you is the new PKN (neutral PK). It
is still in an experimental stage, but it will work well for your
interests. You can find it here:

Papers worth trying would be Epson Premium Semimatte and Epson Premium
Semigloss, though getting 17x22 is another matter.

Regards,
Dirk
