Re: Can I get a nice neutral black and white print from the 2200?

2004-05-15 by Steve German

I agree a custom profile works wonders. A friend with access to an i1
profiled Museo and Entrada bright white for me. The Museo makes a nice warm
toned print and the Entrada slightly cool toned. The natural tone Entrada
would probably be similar to the Museo. All very even toned throughout the
scale, though, no color shifts anywhere. More experimentation with papers
might yield the most neutral results, but if you had to pay for profiles,
could get pretty expensive!
