Sorry, but I don't agree with this. Inkjets can provide a broader gamut
than optical printing, but that is not all there is to a print. I find
inkjet prints more successful with color images than b/w images, and only
those inkjets using multi-tonal b/w inks approach the qualities of an
optical or optical/digital print. That's not to say that any of these
media are "bad", but they are distinctly different.
Best,
Neil
