1. Cheap, slightly complex solution requiring a little research:
Try www.inksupply.com for empty R1800 carts you can fill yourself 
with their Black Eboni ink then print stunning B/W by using QTR 
(www.quadtonerip.com) and Paul Roark's QTR profiles/curves (search 
in this Group for recent posts by Paul).

2. Not so cheap, simple process
Try www.piezography.com for pre-filled R1800 carts. Print using QTR 
(as above) using profiles that come with QTR. Again stunning B/W 
prints on a range of matte papers.

I have used both and now use Option 1 above.

Cheers
Jim
