Inkjet prints, on an Epson 1280. They have a clarity that I cannot reproduce
on the screen. I have a photo of a Mardi Gras Indian that truly remarkable.

I suspect that 777 is not nearly as magical as its legend would make it. It
would have to really show me a benefit over other readily-available
developers to make me decided to keep ordering it from Canada and
experimenting to find good developing times.

N.B. - This 777 is better than I thought it would be. I'm not sure that any
other one developer is its equal. For what it's worth, the printed images
look 100% better than the screen shots of the same scan. For my money, the
prints look better than those developed in D-76 1:1, the so-called
"standard" for comparing developers.

I guess between 1:46 and 7:24PM, you made some prints and it's making you a 
believer? :-)

Analog or inkjet prints?
