Digital BW, The Print

Woody:

Using mat paper, can you be more specific about how the two printer
setups compare in image quality with B&W?  For instance, is the dMax
different?  How about the tonal rendition and the shadow detail?

Secondarily, with color, and again on mat paper, have you compared
your new 2400 with the 1800?

Thank you,
Robert Ades
