Paul,
As anxious as I am to get started with a dedicated B&W 1280 and your
ink/workflow process, what I've read thus far leads me to believe that
UT2's are not only easier to use than the original UT, but better in
terms of Dmax, longevity and performance on a wider variety of papers.
I'd rather not spend $56 on the original UT's for these reasons...
(maybe you should have kept a lid on the UT-2 project until they were
ready for sale!)
Thanks always, though. It's great having people like you in the world.
