Digital BW, The Print

I found the MIS-EZN inks ,even with the warm ink in the yellow
position, were a bit on the cool side with my C86 and EEM. That's why
I opted for the warm inkset with my R220-but its way too warm. Maybe
the neutral inks for the R220 and a 'warm' paper will give the look
I'm after.
