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.
