Digital BW, The Print

Hi Walt

I did the QTR curves for the 4800 to avoid the use of yellow ink.  I have
not as yet gone back to compare output from Epson ABW vs these QTR curves on
matte paper.  Yes I am using Eboni.  It performs better on third party
papers but can't match Epson MK on Epson papers.

Cheers

Steve
