Digital BW, The Print

Yes, that's enough to push me away from the HP.  I had read Neil's review 
also--and his posts on the dpreview printer forum.  It appears to me that 
its the 2400 or nothing for now since the Canon is not the size printer I 
need.  I have access to larger format printing with the newer large format 
Epson and I don't too often print larger than 11 x 17 or 13 x 19 (with 
borders--I don't print borderless).

It means that when you move from one type of viewing light to another, the
colors change color, and the grays lose neutrality. This would tend to imply
that the light grays are derived from color inks, not light gray ink, which 
is
the issue we've been discussing here for the last day or two...
