Digital BW, The Print

Mark,

I agree. The level of expertise, intense scrutiny and testing among the
folks on this list makes the typical "lens test" on the LUG seem like
childs play :-)

I'm using the MIS EZ inks on a C86 with EEM mostly. Excepting one
clogging issue, it's been fairly trouble free, although I sometimes have to
tweak the sliders and make a few prints to match what I'm seeing (or
think I'm seeing) on the monitor.

I yearn to give a nice 2200 and a RIP a try, but frankly, the discussions
here on the forum intimidate me a bit and make me wonder if I have the
time available necessary for dialing in the results that the hardware/
software is capable of.
