If you have been printing from a "Grayscale" file in Photoshop, then you will
never get good prints from a digital printer. The secret is to convert to
"Duotone" mode and choose the inks you want. One must be black of course.
Then you can specify how much black you want and how much of the other color.
You can choose any tone from neutral to very warm depending on the color of
the 2nd ink.
