Thanks for the info on MIS inks, Nick. You might also want to check out 
Lincoln Inks at www.lincolninks.com. I've seen examples of their quadtone 
print output and it's very good.

About the Transfer Function's not working with Peizography: Since 
Transfer Functions and Curves are really the same thing (Transfer 
Function does provides a higher degree of precision when designing the 
Curve), you can create your Transfer Function and then apply it to your 
grayscale image as a Curve or Curve Adjustment Layer. I do this all the 
time.

One word of warning: A Mac is smart enough to regard Curves and Transfer 
Functions as the same thing, meaning you can open both from either the 
Curves or Transfer Function Dialog Box. On a PC, things get a bit more 
difficult (what's new) in that the correct file extension must be on the 
Curve or Transfer Function in order for the corresponding dialog box to 
recognize it.

I've had very good luck with the Piezography software and inks but I 
certainly understand that the 1160 is a quirky beast and others might 
want to try different solutions. I should also add that Bill Bergh in 
Tech Support at inkjetmall.com has been very responsive whenever I've 
called with questions or problems.

Hope this helps!
