Lawrence,
I will try to remember to do that, but below was one of Robert's responses to
the Indelible post.

I find the indelible black to be poor on Hahnemuhle papers (including Cone's
Wells River).  Its pretty good on EAM.  If you are looking for a fine art
archival paper (EAM is NOT)...try Museo from Crane, Eclipse Satine Softwhite
from photoinkjet.com or Merlin or Condor from Hawk Mountain.  To my eye
(dmax coming soon) they give much better blacks with this ink set.
