Digital BW, The Print

Printing out the calibration chart revealed the culprit.  The LM catridge, which in the UT7 
inkset is bluish in tone, was reddish-brown.  N(Not the same tone as the LC cart, but in 
the same ballpark.)  I found another LM cart and substituted it and found it had the correct 
ink color in it.  I've notified MIS.
