It is always great to have the "voice of history and
reason" reappear at the most needed moments.

Thanks

Has anyone in the current incarnation of this subject
read the "What
To Call Them?" article at 

   http://www.cjcom.net/articles/digiprn6.htm


Among other things, it touches on the (now very old
and long died
away) "carbon print" controversy:

"The term "Carbon Pigment Print", often used today to
describe fine
art black and white inkjet prints, seems to have
evolved out of the
controversy that sprang up after some inkjet people
used the term
"Carbon Print", and the people working in the old
carbon print
processes took offense that their name was being
hijacked."

This battle raged for months across numerous forums,
and when the dust
finally settled there seemed to be a tacit agreement
throughout the
inkjet community that "carbon print" was off limits,
but things like
"Carbon Pigment Print" and "Carbon Ink Print" are ok. 
I guess history
has to repeat itself.

BTW, the article makes a case for using "Carbon Ink
Print", but I did
not invent the term.  It was one of several I saw used
during The
Great Carbon Print Debate.

Regards,
Clayton
