Neutral Photo Black

2005-01-13 by Paul Roark

I have been able to mix a neutral PK with a very high dmax.  On Costco
glossy paper it has an initial dmax of 2.46.  This will come down (to 2.34
so far after a few hours), but test prints are continuing to be
significantly darker than standard MIS PK.

 

This ink, printed on Kirkland glossy paper with the 1280, BO, is 0.01
density unit cool at 50%, and 0.01 unit warm at 75% and 90%.  The print has
substantially less bronzing than a C86 EZ-N print on the same paper.
Although the 1280 at 2880 is not as smooth as if a full inkset were used,
this makes a very simple and impressive print that will need no spraying for
bronzing.
