Digital BW, The Print

You are not alone.  I'm also a big fan of Claria - just waiting to  
see if Epson advances this technology to larger format printers or if  
it is a small printer dead end.  I made some BO and composite black/ 
gray profiles for this inkset that you can download in the Epson 380  
folder in the QTR Yahoo group files:
