I use the MIS quadtone inks for my black and white with a 750 Epson and heavyweights matt paper. For larger prints on the 1200 is use regular Epson color inks. Maybe gloss would demand a higher PPI, Austin. I would think it would. Plus more ink. Who need it?!:) I'll reduce my scans to 240ppi 9 inch print to fit on letter sized paper but when I go a size up in paper it still looks good. mark rabiner
