Re: R800 source space and print space settings/weak blacks

2004-05-18 by edrudolpho

Hi... give these settings a try:

Source:  Documents
Print: Same As Source

In the epson driver Select Media Type, Black and Color Controls.

These are settings for the OS X driver.  In this driver, when you select Black, Color 
Controls is the only available selection under Color Management.

If that doesn't work, try selecting 20% Gain rather than Same As Source for your 
Printer Space.  Also, if you are getting weak blacks, change from Perceptual to 
Relative.
