Re: [Digital BW] For Julian: To Piezo or Not to Piezo...that is a question.

Tim-

After I posted this, I read an email announcing that Lyson has posted 
ICC profiles for the 1160 and fine art papers and glossy papers... 
It's on their website along with instructions for using the profiles 
in conjunction with Photoshop 6.0 proof preview feature to see a 
pretty close WYSIWYP function.

This looks like a decent solution. Piezo for warm prints, Lyson for 
variable...
