[Digital BW] Re: naming these things revived

That's a good question. You know the uc monochromes are really no different than 
Piezzotone and others in this reagard for most of the inksets .Pure carbon is very warm 
and the addition of other pigments allows for the other hues you end up with. So,unless 
you are printing sepia none of them is pure carbon, but all of them are primarily carbon.

Call em Carbon. Why not?
