Digital BW, The Print

Roy 

Thanks for the help.  Sorry I have been away and have only just come back to
this.  Am I right in that one should determine the various ink limits (and I
am quite happy to simply take your numbers for these) and that the
partitioning should be determined with these inks limits in place?  As you
can see from this thread I am getting quite different partitioning figures
than Carl for the same ink/medium combination.  The lower partition for LK
presumably means that the ink limits for LM and LC can be lower also (?).

The partitioning process makes intuitive sense to me but the final
smoothing/curve math is way beyond me for the moment.  (Any reading material
on this that does not require a physics degree?)

Cheers

Steve

The 2200 ink limits were done a little more adhoc rather than strictly by
my orginal documents.  The idea for cool 2200 prints is to have a
combination of LK,LC,LM play the role of one light black ink. (Basically,
instead of mixing the inks manually to get a neutral gray, the idea is
to mix them using software curves).  However the difference is that you
now have 3 inkjets delivering ink so it made sense to lower the individual
limits to make sure we don't flood the paper.
