Geesh!  How do we deal with that ?  I've got to do a lot more
experimenting.  Also, I'm not sure how the 4000 results are going to
compare with the 2200 (I no longer have my 2200).  I hadn't noticed
the differences within the same image, that is disturbing news..

Get rested Clayton - this could take awhile :-)

I'm back into work mode - actually having some other problems right
now with the 4000 unrelated to my personal B&W printing.
