Eric (and anyone else),

How do you like the variable tone printing with the R220? I started
with the warm tone inkset and my R220 so I could try something
different from the neutral inkset that I used on the C86. I find the
warm tone inkset too warm for my tastes but not a big deal since I've
been printing BO for the most part. Now I have a couple of images that
have a lot of detail and the BO prints are too 'grainy'. I'm thinking
about buying the all the neutral inks but debating whether or not to
set up for variable tone printing. Any thoughts?
