Digital BW, The Print

Steve,

The 4800 reports are interesting.  I suspect the new Epson printers will
expand the market and, with the aid of Wilhelm tests, help knock down some
of the remaining biases against inkjet B&W printing.

Along those lines, I mailed you some papers (matte) for fade test purposes.
It'll be interesting to see how the new Epson and MIS UT inks compare in
that regard also.

The vacuum pump probably pulls equally from all ink on that side.  The CMY
carts are probably blanks that plug the CMY holes so that only the K is
sucked through the tubes.
