Hi,
I have a Canon iPF6300 that I have been using for about 18 months. I have not been happy with my B and W prints. They usually contain a cast of some sort. I know this is relatively common, but I would like to know how to print without seeing a cast. I process using PS CC and I use the Canon plug-in to print. I have been doing some reading and it is very daunting, to say the least.
I do not know what the next step should be for me to improve this. I have seen duotones as a solution, Piezographic systems and ink, dedicated printers for just B and W, software such as Bowhaus and even Silver Efex to get better results. Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems to me that even if you have an image processed well, it is the printer that will add some color to it and cause a cast. Is this correct?
Any help to get me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim
