Digital BW, The Print

Paul, I used the standard QTR profile for carbon.  I've been working 
on getting prints done for a show this coming weekend and stuck with 
this profile because I was satisfied with the prints I was getting 
out.  However, next week when I reload inks I will replace the yellow 
cartridge, I believe, to keep the prints warm.

Also, btw, what is your recommendation for a fine art paper to use 
with the 1280/ut2 combo that is a warm tone paper that will also take 
a warm ink such as this eboni based inkset.

Thanks, Mike
