Digital BW, The Print

It looks like this will be a winner. So far I've just been doing UT2, but I
suspect UT7 will react exactly the same way. 

Glop can simply replace the Y-position sepia, and, with a proper (& simple)
blue curve, essentially rid the glossy prints of bronzing.  All the other
curves and attributes of UT2 stay close to the same -- except the Sepia
curve prints very light.  ;-)

So, matte + bronze-less glossy UT2 printing from carbon to cool tones seems
to be here, with very little work.  

To modify the "glossy-eboni" curves, just print a test strip with the
existing curve.  Then pull the blue curve down in the areas of the bronzing
until the test strip gives an equal reflection.  Keep the curve going back
to the top (glop off) at the 100% black spot to avoid turning on the Eboni.
To make the blue-glop curve, you just use your eyes, no instruments that I
have help.

I'll be testing other papers to see how they look, but with Ilford, one of
the relatively bad bronzers, it does a very good job.
