Digital BW, The Print

Hey Jerry in Houston,

I'm in Houston!

I use Paul Roark's curves with MIS UT inks on an Epson 1270 and am VERY
happy with the prints. I don't think I'll be doing much darkroom work
anymore.

I'm involved with the Houston Photographic Society. They will be meeting
Tuesday, 23, at Tracy Gee Community Center at 7 pm. This meeting is our
monthly print competition (we don't do slides). I will more than likely be
bringing a B&W print using the carbon on cotton process (MIS UT and Epson
EEM).

Feel free to email me offline.

Thanks,
Barbara (in Hooooouuuuuuuston)

Hello Barbara,

>on cotton process (MIS UT and Epson EEM).

Please be aware that EEM is not a cotton paper.  Don't let someone at
the meeting pick you apart on a technicality and detract from the
issue of print quality.  Best to use a true cotton paper or else call
it something else.  I prefer the term "carbon ink print", many use
"carbon pigment print" - whatever you use, DON'T call it a "carbon
print" because that's the name of another process - the carbon print
people are very touchy about the digi folks stealing their name
(understandably so).

Let us know what happens.  I love the "shock and awe" stories, like
Austin's the other day.  Great stuff <g>.

Regards,
Clayton
