Simon,

Out of interest, what type of paper do you use to get full 256 step 
black to white results via your PiezoBW inkjet?

My experience is that even a 64 step B&W, especially with a good edge 
dithering and small matrix or pixel resolution makes a pretty nice 
looking gradient.

I do wonder how successful an inkjet can be in producing a 256 step 
gradient, black to white, even with 4 ink densities.
