Digital BW, The Print

Jeff --

Thanks for the detailed response.  I'll do some careful reading in 
the Files section.  To clarify question (2), when I print a stepwedge 
using a TS curve (specifically 4t_eam.amp) that shows an even CMY 
breakdown on screen, the printed version shows a sharp tonal break 
between 90% and 85%, and two groups of three bands (100, 95, 90 and 
85, 80, 75) print as a dark solid tone, with no discernable 
difference.  This produces landscapes for example, where parts of a 
grassy field suddenly go "flat" because certain defined tones in the 
negative are indistinguishable from each other in the print (obvious 
problem).  On the other hand, bands 5% through 70% show an evenly 
spaced progression.  I'm assuming (hoping) that some kind of TS curve 
adjustment can fix the problem.

Cheers,
Darrell
