Sorry guys this is off topic but we are printing Leica Lens created
negatives. ;-)

Hi Adam,
Are you printing Epson 2200 B&W'S with Matte black ink only?

That's the only ink we use doing b&w and so far they seem to be quite
excellent. The only beef I have is the cost of the Epson inks, colour or
B&W. Sandy & I are about to make a set of exhibition prints 13 X 19 on Epson
Velvet Fine Art paper, we've made a couple of test prints which have blown
me away with the quality and pure B&W look.

However, I don't want to get half way through them and then find the inks
are going squirrelly with a weird off colour look.

Your experience? Thank you.
ted
