Digital BW, The Print

I haven't tested it specifically.  In general I was not happy with Lyson
Print Guard (same thing?) because spraying (a) was very messy, (b) mottled
the blacks easily, and (c) was prone to trapping/attracting dust.  I think
the use of glop makes things a lot easier and consistent.  I think 60%
overcoat is likely more than necessary and I will try dropping down to 50%.
I just dropped PKN in place of PK in my colour MIS UC set and will reprofile
with 50% glop.
