I'm using a couple of modified UT2 inksets; in one of them I've changed the sepia in the yellow position for FSN-y, and I've changed the Eboni for PKN; in the other set I've left Eboni in place and changed the sepia for FS-y. question: which inks constitute a pure carbon print, is it just the use of Eboni, PKN, M, LM and FSN-y or FS-y; or just the use of Eboni, M or LM, Jamie

The lightest pure carbon in the MIS UT inkset family is UT1 quad M or Hex Y (half way between FS M and Y, and slightly lighter than LLK). Paul www.PaulRoark.com

That confirms what I had concluded about FS-Y. It is quite a bit more neutral than the UT7 LC for example and does not match that ink well. Paul, UT-HEX-4-Y (which I think you're referring to) as shown on MIS's color swab page looks almost identical to UT7 LC. Is that a fair representation? It's a pity MIS don't have a lighter pure carbon ink. http://www.inksupply.com/colorswabs.cfm Howard Paul Roark wrote:
