Digital BW, The Print

My experience with their "older inks" was totally negative..My "archival" prints began to turn  a sick greenish color. ( I'm going back about 5 years ago and about $300 in in Piezotone Inks.!)...I believe they  have a better inksets available today..
In the meatime, I'm VERY happy with the MIS ink solutuion, UT-14 in particular, either using Paul Roark's curves, or Harrington's QTR..

  Anyone have experience with Jon cone's CIS with "Special Edition" inks for
  the 1400? I'm about to try this and was wondering what people think.

  Best to all,

  Rudy
