I just purchased an R1800 and a set of three MIS inks for it. I wish I read posts like this before I made the purchases. I read all I could by knowledgeable people and it seemed the MIS 3 ink set was the way to go. Now I am not so sure. I did not buy the QTR yet and am not sure if I will. I was hoping, and is seemed it would be, a not so complicated way to get good black and whites, but aftere reading a whole string of comments saying black and white on matte paper was disappionting I am re-evaluating my position. I do not like black and white on glossy paper, never used it in my darkroom except for headshots and newspaper work. . To me matte is the way to go for black and white....maybe a little lustre. The MIS inks I bought, the three for the R1800, are they the inks people refer to here about using to get good matte prints? You see, I am up on the terms like PK, PKN, EBoni 3-MK and have no cluse sometimes as to what people are talking about. I guess it takes a while to understand the esorteric vocabulary, but when one is trying to learn it gets frustrating. Thanks for the help frank in NJ "The luckiest dogs are those with clipped tails....they're the ones who won't be chasing their own arses." __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
