Digital BW, The Print

Not any more John.  Best small format B&W prints I've ever made on RC  
(and the new fiber papers) have been with the Epson R1800 using Paul  
Roark's 3-MK workflow, but subsituting the new MIS neutral PK (part#  
RCNTL-4-PKN).  These "3-PKN" prints have that luminous BO quality,  
but without the "grain".   Very smooth highlights and midtones.  QTR  
R1800 3-PKN profiles for use with luster papers (Red River UltraPro  
Satin 2.0 and IJA Microceramic Luster) available here:
