RE: [Digital BW] Re: MIS B&W gone Purplish

Definitely agree with this: I tried to use Lyson Quadblacks for a while, but
prints suffered terribly from metamerism whether on matte or glossy papers:
chocolate brown under tungsten and green under daylight. I also never
managed to get a good dmax.

The MIS inks are night and day compared with Lyson.

If it's the same thing that they used for the test print I ordered, I 
would have to say ACK! Never seen so much metamerism from a dye ink. 
The test print was their Digital Darkroom (or Daylight Darkroom, I 
really can't remember since it left such a bad impression).
