RE: [Digital BW] Dots in 2200 Prints was Off-center prints on Epson 1200

2003-06-23 by Daniel Staver

I used the Epson driver. The point of changing the light black cart to a
lighter black would be to trick the driver into putting lighter dots in
the highlights. With another driver like QuadToneRIP 1.1 or 2.0 it's not
really neccessary in the first place, since it already separates the
inks nicely.

Keep in mind that I'm talking about the Ultratones here, not the OEM
Ultrachromes...
