[Digital BW] Re: KirklandPro Glossy PROBLEMS

2005-01-06 by awahlster

Lou, 
Can you possibly guess why the prints from a digital camera would not
show these marks????

Could it be we are printing at to high of quality? My digital is only
a 4Mp and I've been printing 6X9" prints.

The last print I just did with the epson only shows the faintest of
lines. So maybe it's some weird thing that will clear up.

Gotta love these ink sucking problems. I bet the facotries have guys
sitting around trying to build this into the system LOL
