But what was being talked about was trying other media settings to get 
better shadow gradations. If to get other media settings you have to 
swap out the matte black ink it rather defeats the idea. I also don't 
see any difference in the choices by changing paper source. Maybe the 
large format printers offer choices you don't get for the 2100.
