Digital BW, The Print

No carbon PK will come close to Eboni on matte paper in terms of dmax.  You
need an MK like Eboni.  If you want a slightly warmer MK,  you might try
Epson MK or the one from HP.   However, my memory is that the Epson MK will
not match the dmax of Eboni on Arches, but I don't have clear statistics on
that.  (The Epson MK in my 7800 was so bad it must have been due to
settlement or something else.  It had not been used much at all and was old
ink.)
