Thanks for the info' Greg.

I have had some success using 1 black ink - two would be nice, but I don't
want use up all my ink trying to get what might be a very subjective
improvement.

It would be nice if the User Guide had a plain english section for the
non-cognoscenti.
For example, what does Lightest and Darkest refer to in the Advanced
Adjustments? What is the effect? Does it lighten and darken the shadows and
gamma of the image? Who knows...

Regards,
 D r e w
