Digital BW, The Print

One interesting thing that doesn't seem to have got much attention is the fact that some of K3 black and white tests over at Aardenburg seem to be faring a lot better than anyone would have expected reading posts on forums over the last few years over the concern with colour inks to produce neutral tones.  Many samples are still passing at the 60 Megalux hour point.  Did I miss something in all of this?
