Digital BW, The Print

In my case it was NOT the file. Or the printers in either case. I 
ran nozzel checks before and after printing on the Silver Rag.

Then, I printed on Kirkland with other any problems. Next, I printed 
several 12x15" canvas prints without a problem.

So, it was either the Silver Rag it's self, or it was the madia 
setting that I chose (Premium Glossy 250).

Whatever... I'm sure Crane will have it straightened out before it's 
released.
