[Digital BW] Re: 4800 v. UT7 1600 dpi scans

Hello Scott,

>Does the 4800 have a BO mode using only ONE black ink?

Best I can tell it appears to be just one ink, but I'm not looking at
a ramp, just a print with a lot of smooth gradations.  But I can only
detect a single shade of dots.



>Or, are you refering to the Advanced B&W mode that uses all 3 black 
>inks?

The person who sent me the print said it is a BO print (using PK). 
The ABW prints he sent use more than just the 3 blacks.  The blacks
are warm so colors are added to do the toning.  Paul Roark posted some
scans of prints that show the color dots.


Regards,
Clayton
