You are right, Bruce. Fun is, I was working on two different
exhibitions during these days. In one, the pictures were all
printed on traditional B&W paper (starting from B&W film), in
the other - also black and white - the prints were done
digitally by a large plotter from several differently scanned
media (slides, B&W prints, colour prints). I still don't know
which one I prefer wrt the final result, but the possibility to
digitally erase the dust and control the contrast (etc.) before
printing is, with a big understatement, convenient...
