for Paul Roark - UT2 info page suggestion

2004-02-06 by Jim Batzer

Hi Paul,

First, I'd like to thank you so much for all your work developing 
inksets and custom curves. Your contribution to digital print-making 
continues to be inestimable. Thank you.

I was taking a look at your UT2 info pages and just noticed that you 
never introduce the inks as a "black and white" or "grayscale" 
inkset. You do say "pigment-based variable-tone inkset", but not 
anything like "inks for making grayscale prints without an 
uncontrollable color cast". I think if I knew nothing about Ultra 
Tone or Piezo inks, I'd have a hard time figuring out what these 
inks were for. Just a suggestion...

Thanks,

Jim

I'd hate to see someone buy these, and then complain that everything comes
out in black-and-white. ;-)

Yes in fact comes out as a stunning B-and-W print!

And after all the time, energy, and cash I've invested before I
discovered Mr. 
Roark and UT1!!
