Thanks very much Jon for taking the time and making the effort to answer my inquiry so thoroughly!!! That says a great deal about not only a person's knowledge, but their dedication and passion! I looked at each of the source papers you cited and it reminded me of having read at one time that the Wilhelm testing often quoted by manufacturers defined "significant" change in image quality much farther down the line than I would be comfortable with. I've been printing since before starting high school (in the '60's) and still retain B&W prints that show no obvious signs of change. I am concerned with both the quality of the image - it's depth and richness - qualities that vary according to the particular traditional fiber papers and chemistries involved and their longevity. I too have noticed the greenish tint in Epson black and white prints. Since many of my photographs in recent years have been shot in color, I am in need of making the best selection for quality for both and it is obvious from your information that I must separate the two entirely. I'll be in touch with you on your website very shortly and I thank you for getting me past the fantasy that I could really use one printer to achieve the quality I need in any satisfactory manner. Thank you, again! All My Best, Jerry Davey
