Hello Clayton,

This is an issue that is far from resolved, but progress is being
made. The term "Carbon Ink Print" says it all when it comes to
printing with carbon pigments inks.

But in the case of the Ultrachrome prints, would the terms "Color
Pigment Ink Print" or "Pigment Ink Print" be more appropriate, as I
understand it, there's more color pigments than carbon pigments if any
in the UltraChrome inkset. 

And then there Epson that will be pushing the "UltraGiclée" concept
(Printer, ink, paper. Seems they too want to differentiate from dye
inkset prints or so called "digital prints".

Cheers,
Andre
