Helen,

Thank you for postings re this paper. I just got the latest Print 
Exchange, and I must say I am impressed with your K3 inkset on a 
2200 with TopKote, etc. A couple of questions:

(1) How exactly do you use the K3 LC and R800 B inks to neutralize 
the K3 grays?. Are these toning inks applied throughout the 
grayscale ramp?
(2) Where did you buy the TopKote?

Best regards and keep up the cutting-edge stuff.

Shilesh
