Szarkowski calls my prints "ink prints" which seems be far the best, most
succinct and accurate description I've encountered

Just as we often say "silver prints" "platinum prints" etc - after that we
can add our little comments in brackets or whatever (carbon pigment,
ultrachrome, quadtone etc etc)

It's becoming my standard descriptor for now
