Paul,

Is there much gain in two Ebonies versus one Eboni + PK as the next grey 
+ some PK boost in black ? The last is what I use on the 9000 (last time 
I wrote it was the next grey but it is actually the PK).  I do 
understand that you can lay down as much Eboni as you need and the 
second Eboni fills up the pattern better but I wonder how much that adds 
compared to full Eboni + filling up the pattern with PK.

The PK seems to bleed more on matte than Eboni but isn't worse than the 
rest of the greys on that aspect.
