RE: [Digital BW] What is the closest profile for Hahnemuhle Photo Rag in the Epson C80?

2002-08-23 by Karl Wolz

'Most everything I know, I gleaned from inkjetart's website, and I don't
recall there being any info on lamination other than the recommendation
to do it.
 
You might try dropping them a note.
 
If you're not going to "fool" the printer into using black ink on glossy
stock, there's little reason to laminate or spray, as the ink will
adhere to matt surfaces.  Also, though there is a loss of d-max when
printing CMY, I'm not sure if I like the appearance of the image with
CMYK - it looks kinda surreal, like the black is floating above the
image.  Possibly spraying will reduce that effect.
