Digital BW, The Print

Collin, Tom;

Have either of yountried glop?  Collin, Paul Roark has an 
experimental 1280 cart with UT-2 inks but glop in the yellow 
position, which printer are you using?

Carl Schofield has some of this paper, if he has glop still set up 
in his 4000 perhaps he can tell us if it works to reduce the metalic 
sheen?
