Digital BW, The Print

Scott, I will check when I get home. But from what you say it is 3 
black inks even though one goes into the GO slot. I imagine I got 
what was supposed to get as the sales rep was sharp and knew exactly 
what I wanted for the R1800.

so, if I want glossy I put in the OEM GO and print away. 
If you will, can you answer  this....when I print color, can I use 
the OEM inks and the MIS blacks?

I have not downloade the QTR yet. I was going to purchase it tonite 
and begin trying it out, but, after reading the not so encouraging 
thread on not so good black and white on matte, I am not sure if I 
will buy it or not and return the inks if I can. 

I do hope I have found the process I want to have to do black and 
white. I do NOT want to go back to the darkroom. I can't stand the 
smell anymore.
thanks
Frank
