Digital BW, The Print

Bruce,

>My bottles of the old style MIS FS inks are running out on my 1160.

>I am becoming intrigued by the idea of replacing them with a 
>tri-tone inkset and GLOP.

>Paul, or anyone else, would you have a suggestion as to which inks I 
>might load so that I can print with a black and two grey inks? The idea 
>is that I would be able to print on matte paper as well as glossy using 
>the GLOP. I know I may be sacrificing a little dottiness in the 
>highlights with the 3 ink approach, but I think I may still be happy 
>with it.

>I'll make my own QTR curves so it doesn't have to be a "standard" 
>combination of inks. I do like the color of the original FS inkset.

You might consider the UT-FSN-C and UT-FSN-M.  The 1160 has a modern
variable dot on the color jets.  So, you don't need the FSN-Y anyway.  The
Glop could then go in that spot.  The UT-FSN-C can generate a reasonably
good dmax on glossy paper.

Let us know how it works if you go this way.
