Digital BW, The Print

The answers to your question are as follows,

Yes, you just switch over and use the Piezo work flow.

It seems that people are making the switch for a number of reasons...
1. Economic - The MIS inks are substantially less expensive.
2. Clogging - I believe for the most part people are tired of the Piezo clogging issues.
3. Tone - Although cooler, I am not sure this is a major consideration for swicthing to the FS inks.

  Michael,

  Is it safe to assume, that if someone is switching from PiezoBW to 
  MIS FS inks, that they would not need to adopt the MIS workflow, 
  rather, they would continue to the use the PiezoBW plug-in for 
  Photoshop?

  Secondly, are people making this switch because of economics or 
  because they want a cooler tone than what the PiezoBW inks generate?

  Regards,
