Digital BW, The Print

After dealing with my own lack of experience I've finally ended up with
those NK7 ink carts into the printing head.

I ran more than a couple of cleaning cycles by pushing the change ink button
in my R1800 and finally did a nozzle check print just to see if wiping color
ink had been ok. 
I've then found out a clog is present and that at the time of printing that
sort of tiny checkerboard the darker small boxes were looking reddish.
So decided to repeat cleaning cycles but that didn't help at all. Reddish
was still present. 
Anyway got the Grayscale Linearization test print that Harry point me to and
got an outstanding print. Pretty neat, I would've ever thought those circles
looked so nice. 
Expectations indicated I'd be getting some problems and a reddish cast, but
none of that. The print is perfect. Maybe just a very slight warm cast but
as I don't even know well the inks nor the paper I'm printing with I'd be
willing to hear some of knowledge in the list from.

Only decent paper I've found in Buenos Aires, where I live in, is Epson
Matte heavy weight, just for the record.

Then, as seeing the test print was so good, went for a real photo and got it
printed. It is my very first digital print at least with these inks and
driver (QT rip) and it's so good I can't even believe it.

And even more, it looks precisely like it does in my calibrated monitor.

I'd like now to say thanks again for Harry's help, we've exchanged some few
messages off list...

This is great. 

Now, any comments on that new Ilford Gold fibre based paper ?
There's some people coming down here from the US and would like to get some
of that kind of thing. I used to love Ilford Gallery and Warm Tone fibre
based papers (I mean silver papers) and would like to know if that is, up to
some extent, a similar paper.

If things keep going like this I think I'll finally putting my old wet
darkroom down.
