Digital BW, The Print

I've been experimenting with Van Dyke Brown using digital negatives. I 
am not using Mark Nelson or Dan Burkholder's systems, but am "winging 
it" and so far the (limited) results are very promising.

I am currently using the MIS-EZ inks in an Epson C86 and printing on 
Pictorico OHP. The digital negatives look awful when printed with 
canned settings, but when I dial down "brightness" the ink density is 
much improved.
