Hey Scott,

So far I like what the variable tone set up is giving me. For most of 
my prints I leave the sliders at 0. This produces a warmer image that 
the neutral inks alone, but not enough to call the image 'warm'. For 
some images I like the neutral inks only.....for other images I like 
more warm ink so I increase the ammount via the sliders. It all depends.
