Re: [Digital BW] Dots and More Dots

Daniel, as you probably use the Epson 2100 (as you say UT7?) the dither
pattern may be slightly different, but yes, its quite similar. I would be
very interested to know what results you get with the "carbon" curve. For me
the carbon curve prints are very close to perfect, however I find the
"carbon" tone too warm most of the time.

Also what paper setting did you use? I now found that "photo" paper makes
the pattern come out stronger than photo quality ink jet paper...


I have printed out the 21step wedge on Ilford smooth pearl, I just want to
let it dry before I put it on my homepage...

Is this the type of texture you're seeing in the shadows?

I just got my UT7 inkset today, and I get some noticable texturing in
the shadows. The paper is Ilford Smooth Pearl, printed with the neutral
curve. Scanned at 1800dpi on an Epson 3200.

I'll try some Premium Semigloss next and see if the same thing happens
there...
