Digital BW, The Print

I tried some Ilford Printasia and was not impressed.  I found the bronzing
so bad even Glop couldn't cure it.

Also, there is no additional word on the 1280 sponge-less carts.  It'll be
at least a couple more weeks.

Hi Paul;

I would like to suggest you try the Ilford Printasia; It's available 
at Comp USA up to 13x19, and seems very similar to the Costco; It 
also prints very much alike with dyes, and did quite well with 
QTR&MIS UC inks.

BTW any release date on the 1280 rifillable carts yet?
