black-only printing in context (was Re: [Digital BW] Dot Gain and other profiles)

2002-12-23 by Sam A. McCandless

The third ("Digital Tri-X: An Alternative Approach") of the three 
articles Clayton Jones has written and published on this page of his 
web site

http://www.cjcom.net/digiprnarts.htm

concludes with some how-to advice about getting started with 
black-only digital B&W printing. But Clayton's series of three 
articles is also a successful attempt to put "BO" printing in the 
context of digital B&W printing more generally. His series seems to 
me an especially valuable resource for anyone thinking about getting 
started with digital B&W printing, whether via BO or not.
