I don't think I ever was able to get what I thought was a good image on
those papers.

That's good to know.  Bronzing is often made worse by the more dilute
inksets.  Avoiding the overly-dilute inks was a major part of my move from
the original UT inkset to the UT2 design.

Yes, the FSN-Y is very dilute -- too much so for many papers, especially on
a machine like the 2000 that pours on lots of ink.  This is why I don't
recommend glossy papers with the 2000p and UT-FS approach.

True.
