Steadman old buddy, old chap, old man,

When I say "close" I mean close. Very close. You see, the difference is perceptible only when measured in densitometric terms. Surely an old man like you can't possibly see the difference. Even a 47 year old stud like me has problems seeing the difference. And besides, with the compression that IJM builds into the shadows, who says that the Piezo inks are indeed "right". ;-)

Anyway, seriously, you are correct. Close is close and obviously not the same. But I think at a certain point close becomes moot.

The good thing is that with choices we can all tailor our personal working style and choices to use the ink of our choice.
