Re: Eboni Black questions

2004-02-27 by chipcarterdc

So, any other follow-up on this?  Is anyone doing full color printing w. the 
Eboni black installed, and, if so, do you just use the Epson profiles or are 
custom profiles needed?

And, a question from my other post: how does the Eboni black look on glossy/
luster papers and how well (if at all) does it adhere to such papers?  (Either 
printing w. just the Eboni black on glossy/luster or full color w. the Eboni black 
installed)
