Digital BW, The Print

Hi all,

I've been learning a lot from this K3, K7 discussion. Seriously.

Not so seriously, I was just sitting here with my 2400 out of ink. You know how it is. The 
ink and paper delivery isn't going to come until Monday. I fired up the old 220 again. Its 
yellow nozzle seems to be hopelessly clogged, but I had a half-full eboni sitting around.

I'm not sure how I did it, but somehow I got the thing to swallow a few half sheets of 
Bergger pn 33 for a bo 4x6. This is a really interesting warm-tone combo, as I haven't 
really warmed up to HPR, like others. The bergger looks positively dingy to something like 
enhanced matte or kayenta and flakes like crazy, but it's interesting.

I'm trying to replicate how I got this thick of a paper to go through the 220. I'm not sure if 
it was my special bending technique, the gentle pressure I applied to the paper as it went 
through, or the voodoo dance I engaged in while completely naked. I'll report back if 
there's any interest.

Have a great weekend!
Mike

Surely must have been the voodoo dance.  In case others want to learn
it, how about making a self portrait and posting it here...
