Re: [Digital BW] Piezography Review: Piezo v. Epson resolution

2001-10-12 by Martin Wesley

Jo,

I never saw that one and would like to take a look if you would send 
it to me off list. 

I don't know why they would have taken it down. All my trials have 
been with the 6-color ink set and perhaps that works differently than 
the 4-color.

I have just observed the difference but really don't know why it is 
there. It might be caused by something other than running lighter 
colors into the 100% black.
