Digital BW, The Print

Hi all
Last week I ordered some ink for my R800 to do some BW print and some digit neg. I was surprised few days after when I've received onlya bottle of black ink . Should I put this ink in the 3 postions GB, MB and glossopt. Or did I make a mistake in my order???

Best regards

The only B&W R800 approach MIS has, as far as I know, is the "3-MK" workflow  I describe at http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/R1800.htm  

In the 3MK approach only MIS Eboni Mk is used to generate B&W prints  on matte paper.  I'm not sure if this is  what you really want for digital negatives.  Eboni Mk will rub off glossy paper or film.

Thanks for your answer. I spent some time on your web page Paul. I  choose this way because I am quite sure that it will allow me to have good bw print but lso that it will work for digitneg for alt process.
I'll keep you inform of my result in this use. But most of the good quality transparency work well with Matt ink
