Martin, When I was selenium toning darkroom prints, Mine never had a purple cast. I know that if you leave the papers in the toner long enough, it could go purple, but I only toned for the deeper black, and pulled the prints before they started to turn. Are most photographer's actually WANTING the purple look? Jerry

In a word yes! One of the tyrannys of quad tone inks is the lack of flexible color options. Don Bryant

With Small gamut inks you can get any tone you want. Jerry donbga wrote:

Robert, they appear to have greatly improved the metamerism with the SG inkset. If you print to a nice neutral in daylight, the prints look just a tad sepia in tungsten, but not much. It's a great improvement from the magenta metamerism they used to have. Jerry But they ARE a dye inkset, so probably won't be as archival as one would like. Robert Morrison wrote:

O Crap! I'm not using the same paper I was using the first time I tried the inks, so it may just be the paper. In any case I have the new set of VM MIS inks and the CIS will be here tomorrow, so that's that! Jerry tomoc wrote:
