Digital BW, The Print

I have found that for photo black (glossy prints) on the 2400,  
Kirkland is not as good as it was with UT2 inks. It is still pretty  
good, but it has more gloss diferential.
Premium semi-matte has the same amount of gloss dif as Kirkland.  
Premium semi gloss is quite a bit better,
Premium lustre has even less gloss dif, but the surface is more obvious.
Premium glossy has even less gloss dif, and finally ultra premium  
glossy has no gloss dif or bronzing whatsoever.
All of these are really good image wise, but that is the order in  
terms of gloss dif/bronzing. I would say that none really have  
"bronzing" like the old UT2 or UC inks. I alos think that the ultra  
premium has the nicest surface, and that the preium lustre has my  
least favorite surface, and the most evidence of actual bronzing. I  
do use preium lustre for certain things like headshots.
