Digital BW, The Print

Hi Gang.................

  I have been using an Epson C66
  with MIS EZN Inks and Ilford
  Classic Pearl paper.......

  Now the paper says it's suppose
  to be for Dye inks, but it has been
  giving me great looking prints.

  I have had two copies of the same print hanging 
  on a wall with indirect sunlight for almost a year 
  now and there seems to be no difference between
  the one framed behind glass and the one open
  to the direct air and sunlight.

  I am going to purchase a refurbished 
  Epson 1280 (I am already using one for color)
  for B&W printing.

  I am wondering how the UT2 Inks
  from MIS will work with the Classic
  Pearl Paper?

Russ,

 

I have not used the UT2 inks with the Classic Pearl paper, but they should
react much like the EZ inks you've used.  The inputs are the same.  One
difference might be that the hextone printers might put more fluid in the
midtones.  If that paper has trouble absorbing the water, then there could
be some blotchiness there, but I'm speculating.  If that is the case,
however, there are other papers that should work and be close to what you're
getting.
