Digital BW, The Print

I'll have to say no.  The change is in the values I'm getting from the densitometer.  They 
are technically within the margin of error for the intstrument, but the difference has made 
me change my values for ink limit and relative density.

Perhaps I'm being too critical of the numbers?  I'm aiming for an ideal curve, but if density 
is too much of a moving target during the first x hours of a print, then it would seem that 
realizing the ideal would be difficult.
