Digital BW, The Print

Scott,

If you have not read the information on the web site below by Clayton 
Jones of this forum you might want to.  He uses a 2400 with 
apparently very good results as have many others who report their 
success with ABW.  I use a 3800 and am impressed with the quality of 
the prints I make with the ABW system.
