Digital BW, The Print

Bernd,

I did some prints with the FS-Neutral on Photo Rag and other Hahnem\ufffdhle
papers and was not so pleased with the tone. The inks are cool neutral and
they have a very slight bluish tone. Under some light sources they look very
neutral on the Hahnem\ufffdhle papers but light sources that bring out the blue
are not so pleasing since the paper base is yellow warm and seems to clash.

I am going to try some blends of the two FS inks and will post my results.

Martin

Subject: [Digital BW] MIS FS vs FS Neutral on H. Photo Rag


Mike et al ( who have tested the new MIS FS Neutral ink):
I have always been satified with the tonal match of  MIS FS and
the Hahnem\ufffdhle German Etching and W. Turner papers, which
are not as brilliant white as EAM but a bit warm.

On the other hand I had a problem with MIS FS and the final
version of Photo Rag. I found MIS SF to warm for this very white
paper and prefered to print on a preliminary version of PR (which
was as warm as GE - but is out of stock now).
Since the advent of FS Neutral ink I\ufffdm looking forward to trying it
with Photo Rag. Will it be a better match ??

Bernd
