Digital BW, The Print

Will,

It was a pleasure meeting and chatting with you this weekend.  

I must say that I was totally surprised at the quality of B&W prints you are
getting from your 1800 using Epson's color inks.  I expected to see some
traces of color hues but saw none.  Also, the sharpness of your prints was
better than the color prints done on lightjets that others were showing.
Another interesting thing is that when prints are put behind glass,
metamerism is a non-issue unless you've got it real bad.  I encourage anyone
in the San Diego area to check out this exhibit.

While those of us in this group (including me) tend to spend a lot of time
talking about the C8x, 220, 2400, and occasionally the 1280, this exhibit
showed the 1800 at $300 less than the 2400 is definitely capable of
producing gallery quality carbon-based prints.  Of course, it helps when the
printer knows what he's doing!
 
Bob
