RE: [Digital BW] Re: Epson 2000P whats different ?

2002-08-22 by Paul Roark

If you are going to use the Woolf workflow and FS inks, be sure to get the
FS or FS-N "E" series inks.  The problem with the standard Piezo or FS inks
in a hex printer with the Epson driver is that the same-density cyan &
light/photo cyan, magenta & light/photo magenta make the inksets incapable
of giving acceptable results with the Epson driver.  The built-in
cross-overs assume different density inks and cause an incurable flat spot
with same-density inks.

The "E" series FS inks use diluted light/photo position inks that avoids
this problem, similar to the ink positions I'd recommended hex owners try
with Piezo/FS inks.

  Alex --
  The John Woolf workflow is on the MIS site as a downloadable zip
  file. I think it's on their workflow page. As I recall, the 2000P is
  not specifically mentioned in the list of hex printers, but the curve
  and settings seem to work well with my machine. On some prints I have
  to lighten values a bit, but haven't noticed any posterization. Good
  luck.
