Re: [Digital BW] Which Printer?

What do you have at the moment?  The magenta cast is not so much a printer
issue but rather a workflow issue.  The new Epson 2400 takes a lot of these
things off the table with a great deal of simplicity but very good B&W can
be had on much cheaper printers with the right ink and workflow.
