Re: Is anyone using an Epson 2000P as a black only printer?

2003-09-11 by B. Alex Pettit Jr.

I was quite successful in using the 2000P as a 'Four' color printer 
with the MIS FSe inkset and Gen4 K and the stock Epson color curve:

I modified a Tint curve under PictureWindows to use K from 100%-94%, 
transition to C to 80%, then transition to allowing the Epson driver 
create the 'grey' shades from 80% to 50% with C M Y and from 50% to 0% 
with the LC LM Y inks. It works well.

I doubt I will be using my E2000P again, as I am most satisfied with 
the results I am obtaining with my E3000 in the wider format, so it 
may be for sale - if interested, contact me off the Group, please.

PicWin Tint curve: free.

Best,
Alex
