Digital BW, The Print

Just difficult to swap inks around with a CFS eg from matte black to photo
black (Epson MK to Eboni etc).  What system are you on, Mac or PC?  I can
print 2880 ppi to matte paper (OS-X, 2100 driver).  Not sure what you mean
about the profiles but I think BO is intended to be Same as Source.
