Digital BW, The Print

Sorry the quote was from a feature elsewhere - on photography.about.com 
not here.

I wrote it having used ABW when I get time I'll probably also try 
IJC/OPM, but I have to move the printer to do that as it won't work 
across the network which is a slight pain. I think with ABW I more or 
less used the default settings, just making it a little darker.

Regards

Peter
