Have you seen a quad-tone/Piezography print, as opposed to a black-only
inkjet print?

Then, I suggest you do ;-)

TMX is a "chunky" film IMO (as are all the "tab grain" films to me).  Tri-X
has a very nice tonal curve, and exceptional grain characteristics when
exposed and developed (D-76 1:1) properly.  It's a look I prefer.  Neopan
1600 in XTOL actually has a look like Tri-X IMO.

No problem.
