Re: [Digital BW] Converting from Piezo Inks to Anything Else

2002-01-28 by jamesmsims

Michael,

Is it safe to assume, that if someone is switching from PiezoBW to 
MIS FS inks, that they would not need to adopt the MIS workflow, 
rather, they would continue to the use the PiezoBW plug-in for 
Photoshop?

Secondly, are people making this switch because of economics or 
because they want a cooler tone than what the PiezoBW inks generate?

Regards,
