Re: [Digital BW] Digital B&W Printing--Which method?

2004-09-16 by Douglas Meeuwsen

well, I give my vote to mis UT ink using the driver/sliders method. 
Super easy, and look real good, work on lots of papers. Just have to 
dial them in on your papers, which is pretty easy by trial and error. 
Looks better than black-only, which was not really that simple when I 
tried it. Black-only has problems with dither banding on certain dark 
areas which can ruin a print. quadtone rip seemed to work exactly as 
well as the sliders method, only 4 times slower. Paul roarks curves 
method is cool too for more control, but for me, the sliders give 
plenty of control.
