Digital BW, The Print

I am interested and can contribute the Z3100 samples and NK7 samples ( to go along with the Photorag samples I already sent you).

I can produce the Canon Lucia B&W prints on an iPF8100 if others can make the HP and Epson prints. I would supply some sheets of paper to participants from the same stock so we'd eliminate that variable. It would be head-to-head ink results with the three OEM B&W solutions. We could create cool, neutral, and warm renderings on two or three selected paper types.  If any of the new AaI&A members (about a dozen of you from this forum signed up this weekend) or any of my existing members from this forum would like to give this "round robbin" testing a try, please contact me offline. If there is enough interest, we can get it going.
