Digital BW, The Print

I haven't tried it, but in the past I had very good results with BO 
on the C86 using the Epson ink on EEM. After switching to the MIS 
EZ inkset, I was dismayed to find that, to my eye, the prints were 
no smoother or more detailed than the BO prints (I made a post 
about this sometime in May) and the only difference to my eye was 
the visibly warmer tone of the BO prints.

Strangely, now that I have the MIS EZ inks installed, the BO prints 
on my C86 (with Eboni ink) show banding -- even after doing several 
head alignments. It's a pity, because the BO technique was faster 
and seemed to use much less ink.

Perhaps it's time to go back and see what I can do to get rid of 
the banding.
