RE: [Digital BW] R220 ink suggestions

Many thanks for your suggestions.  I may try out the the UT-3D toner as I
like selenium tone prints much more than sepia.

I have never used the UT-FSN inkset.  I did use UT-FS for a while in an
Epson 3000.  Sadly the printer paper feed died or I would still be using it,
for some prints at least.

  I would try either the UT7 Sepia or UT-3D Lab A toner if you wanted to
  experiment with either sepia or selenium type toning respectively.
  Alternatively, if you wanted a lighter ink to give you a quadtone set
  up, you could try UT-FS-Y. That would give you a similar tone in the
  highlights to the warm R2 inks and a split tone effect if used with the
  Neutral inks.

  As a matter of interest did you ever use UT-FSN inks and if so how does
  the tones of the UT-R2 Neutral inks compare?
