Re: [Digital BW] Glop problem

2005-01-04 by Carl Schofield

I've only applied the glop via a 2200 printer using QTR profiles that 
put down glop in small amounts (ink limit = 10%) of glop as the print 
is made.  Takes awhile to dry completely but no smearing or ink 
running.  I've only used this so far for B&W prints, but found that the 
glop seems to be most effective in reducing bronzing when printed with 
the UT class inks (I have UT2 and UT-FSN inks in my 2200 with the 
glop).  I tried overcoating prints done previously in my 4000 with UC 
inks and although bronzing was reduced significantly it was not 
completely removed as with the glop/UT inks combination.  This 
overcoating on the UC prints was done with glop limits of 10% to 100% 
and there was no smearing or running.  You will need to remove pizza 
wheels (or front rollers for the 2200) from the printer used for glop 
application to avoid tracking marks.
