Digital BW, The Print

Having gone through this process recently with my 3800,
perhaps I can help a little. Yes, that is correct. For B&W, use a 
Chan profile on the first page of the print dialgue box. If he 
doesn't have one for your exact paper, you can experiment. For 
instance, I use his profile for Hahnemuhle photorag pearl for my 
Hahn. Baryta and Fina Art Pearl Papers. It works great ( provided I 
choose "light" in the ABW option area). For the media, which you 
select in the second print dialogue window, use whatever Mr Chan has 
suggested on his website. For the above 2 Hahn. papers, I use the Ep. 
premium luster-media type. I originally found the "profile" 
and "media" options confusing. To some degree you'll have to a waste 
a bit of paper/ink to find the settings that best fit what you see on 
your screen.
