Re: [Digital BW] Off-center prints on Epson 1200 and/was 1280 or 2200 for BW?

2003-06-20 by Robert Morrison

No I would suggest modifying the 2200 load to:

Matte Black (Epson OEM)
Photo Black (Epson OEM)
Light Black (Epson OEM)
Light Gray (MIS Ultratone Yellow)
Light Cyan (Epson OEM)
Light Magenta (Epson OEM)
Yellow (Epson OEM)

Then you would use IJC to control the curves.  You could make a warm  
curve just using the 2 grays with either of the blacks (depending on  
the paper).  Then make a sepia curve using some yellow and the grays  
and black and then a cool curve using the photo cyan, photo magenta and  
the grays and black.  Then blend away in Open Printmaker.  You can't  
print color...but it will be the ultimate BW machine.  As soon as the  
empty carts start to ship this is what I plan to do.  You could do it  
now if you set up a CIS.
