Re: [Digital BW] Re: dont think inkjet prints do the trick

I think it requires great printers, great ink and great paper.  I think we
have the first already.  On the ink front, "photo" just took a massive leap
forward.  Matte black ink still has a ways to go.  We already have some
great papers but there is much to be learned in the areas of flaking on
matte papers, texture and feel on photo papers etc else people wouldn't be
barking so loudly.  I hear there are inks in development that can already
produce in excess of 2.0 on matte paper (eg HPR) with longevity to rival
anything we have today.  I hope they find their way to market very soon...
