Yes of course not the present “UltraChrome” brand name pigment for black and
white inkjet.
The next generation “UltraChrome2” or whatever it’s called which is just now
coming out with the three grays at least.
Or the MIS or the other pigment options.
The UltraChrome in it’s present carnation has perhaps gotten it sown up in
color.  
Not even close in black and white.

Will come by and check you out at Cirrus,  Tyler.
Will be wearing a red Cumulous carnation so you can pick me out.
