Re: [Digital BW] First Prints

2006-05-10 by Brubaker family

I have made Black Only (BO) prints on my 1200 with the
MIS Eboni (matte black MK) ink in the black cart. 
I've been pleased with the results on a matte paper
(Nature Jet) at 12" X 17.25" on 13" X 19" paper.  I've
been pleased with the results, though I recently
noticed some microbanding when the prints are examined
extremely close up.  It's not visable at normal
viewing distances.  MIS has a gloss version of the
Eboni (a Photo Black PK).  For 8" X 10" range prints a
C8X (I have a C84) or R200 series printer and the MIS
EZ B&W inks are great.  Google search on Clayton Jones
and Paul Roarke.  They both provide a wealth of
invaluable information on their web sites and they
regularly contribute to this forum.
