Hello Richard, >What about we who use Ultra Chrome inks for BW - there are more >colours involved, so can they still be called 'carbon'? Good question. It depends on how strict we want to be. What % of non-carbon pigments has to be in there before the term doesn't apply? That's why I said in the article that there probably would be more than one term evolve. I have noticed in a number of gallery web sites showcasing digi prints that the term "Ultrachrome Print" is being used for RIP-based BW prints. Another site used "Piezography Museum Black" (I think that meant BO because others by the same person were called "Ultrachrome"). At this point it seems the photographer can call them anything he/she wants. I think as digi prints become more widely accepted a few terms will emarge and become standardized. I hope Carbon Ink Print is one of them. Regards, Clayton Info on black and white digital printing at http://www.cjcom.net/digiprnarts.htm
