Re: Tinting the paper before or after?

2002-09-12 by Antonis Ricos

What about me throwing out this idea in the space:
> With tinted inks (not in cartriges....) can we not tint the paper 
> before or after the print is made

Bo,

the easiest way to do this is with a second, color printer. If you attempt to wet 
the paper as you suggest, you will interfere with print quality.

Alternatively, you can coat the finished print with acrylic medium tinted with 
whatever you like. This would only be an overall tint, no local shifts of color.

But you have to do your own fade tests for any of  this....
