Digital BW, The Print

Has anyone had experience with using Ilford's new Galery Gold Fibre 
Silk paper with an Epson R800?  I have some on order but haven't tried 
it yet.  I did download the Ilford profile.  I'm primarily interested 
in B&W.

Thanks,

Gus

Gus,

What inks do you intend to use? And what RIP, if any?

In my experience, the Epson driver with UC inks does not produce accurate B&W results. 
Quadtone RIP is much better at driving the ink set and producing almost acceptable 
results, but with UC inks I still got a lot of color cast and bronzing.

Paul Roark (www.paulroark.com), who also is a regular contributor here, proposes some 
approaches with MIS inks that are very promising, but I have not tried them yet.

Best,

   Giancarlo
