Re: [Digital BW] Looking for a neutral matte paper with Eboni

2012-07-10 by Sylvain M.

Yes, this is something I'm aware of... I use the UT14-C ink from
MIS in the inkset to compensate. But I would like to go to pure carbon.
I'm currently using Hahnemühle (PhotoRag, Bamboo and PR Bright White).
In black only mode on Bright White I get something not too warm, but
this paper contains OBA. 

By the way, I had a look on the market: the
only "neutral" available pure carbon ink is Jon Cone's Piezography, I'm
afraid... 

Regards 

Sylvain.

Ernst. However, you give the Lab values for the paper itself only. What
I'm looking for is a paper giving neutral tones with EBONI inks, in the
high lights as well as in the shadows. Regards Sylvain.

Eboni-1400 PDF gives a good impression of what Eboni diluted and Eboni
Black Only does with various papers. The Eboni is not neutral itself to
start with and it will be hard to get a full range neutral without color
toning that ink. -- Met vriendelijke groet, Ernst Dinkla Grafische
