Digital BW, The Print

It would be good to have a lighter ink.  I'll give those pens a try.

If you want something lighter than black, the Staedtler Marsmatic 700
can be filled with one of the light gray inks. I'm using one and it
works really well. It has a .3mm tip which seems just right. I like
the signature to be more discreet, black ink seems too bold.

These pens come in sets of 4 with normal cost around $60, but eBay has
many vendors handling closeout merchandise and the sets are regularly
available for around $15.

Clayton
