Being a great artist and understanding the science underlying the art are two very different things. For example, Theresa Airey wrote a book called /Creative Photo Printmaking/, and she has some outstanding work in it. On page 40, though, she says of processing infrared film: "Once you use the fixer, store it in a separate jug labeled "Infrared Film Fix." This way, you won't contaminate your other films with infrared radiation." :-) This is not meant to imply that any specific person here has a misguided understanding of inkjet printing. I certainly don't know enough to reasonably claim any such thing. But, putting on my epistemologist hat, it's simply false that impressive artistic credentials provide evidence that someone's understanding of the science behind their art is correct.
