Digital BW, The Print

Hello Joe,
I'm wondering if you can do an experiment for me, it
won't take long or use up much of anything.  I'm a
great fan of Black Only printing, and I recently saw
several BO prints from a 4000 and was impressed by the
unique dither pattern which seemed to eliminate all
dither banding.  Your comments make me wonder if the
C64 has the same dither
pattern as the 4000?

Could you make a small print on both machines using
the Black Only setting and examine them with a loupe
to see if they use the same pattern?  If the C64 uses
that pattern there might be one sitting on my desk
before long.  Thanks very much if you can find time to
do
this.
Regards,
Clayton

Clayton,
I would be delighted to accomodate you.  I will do the
above if you prefer, but I'd find it interesting to
subject the prints to your experienced eye.  If you'd
like, I'll make a BO print on each printer and mail
them to you for your examination.  I would welcome
your critique on the two prints regarding printer
performance.   Printing size? Would 8x10's suffice?  I
need an address to mail to, and will promptly submit
the prints for your scrutiny.  
P.S. I have been doing nothing but B0 with the 4000
and have been astonished how well the printer
performs.  
Joe
