[Digital BW] Re: Disappointed with MIS-VM and Epson 1280

2003-03-08 by Charles Bandes

Jerry - 

I've had problems similar to yours.

Options that helped me:

1. Tyler Boley's 1280 curves and Paul Roark's 1290 curves are both giving me _way_ better prints than Paul's 1280 curves.

2. Roy Harrington's QuadtoneRip gives me amazingly good results (well, with curves I made, which I haven't posted yet.)

I use the standard VM-cool inks on a mac.
