Now i have made my very first full carbon prints with MIS eboni (Black Only) on Brilliant Museum Satin Matte (this paper is like the hahnem�hle photorag). The results of my printing are quiet nice but i get some broncing / different gloss effects in the black areas of the prints using the Eboni ink and the blacks could be deeper. Is broncing a typical problem of pure carbon printing on cotton matte papers? Is there any workaround for this? When i do BO printing with a cheap 3rd party dye ink i have no broncing effects at all and the blacks seems to be deeper. But i know these inks are not archival. It�s interesting to me that the grainyness with the cheap ink is much more a matter than with the Eboni. Sometimes i want to have just the best from both sides. But it might be impossible and i still have to make compromises?
