Re: Suggestions for printing on an Epson 1160

2003-11-13 by Jeff Randall

Allen:

If you want to be able to vary the warm/cool tone of your prints then 
check out MIS VM inksets and use Paul Roark's workflow.  If you don't 
want to vary the tone, then check out the MIS FS (slightly warm) or 
FSN (neutral) inksets and use the 1160 RGB partitioned workflow. Both 
the Roark and 1160 RGB workflows are posted on the MIS workflow pages 
and in the files section of this forum.

The 1160 RGB workflow is at--

Files>Ink Sets>MIS>MIS FS>Jeff Randall's Workflow

The 1160 RGB workflow works well with FS or FSN inksets on EAM/EEM or 
Photorag.

Good luck.  Let's us know how you progress.
