Re: [Digital BW] My experiences with GLOP and UT7

2005-02-16 by Carl Schofield

Daniel,

Here are the inks and positions I'm using in the 2200:

K - MIS Eboni black
LK - MIS Glop
C - PKN
LC - MIS UT7 LM gray
M - MIS PK
LM - MIS UT7 LC gray
Y - MIS UT7 Y Sepia

Warm profile is just MIS PK, MIS UT7 LC gray, and Glop.  Cool profile 
is PKN, UT7 LM gray, and Glop.  Neutral profile is PKN, MIS UT7 LM, MIS 
UT7 LC, and Glop.  Sepia profile is MIS PK, MIS UT7 LC, MIS UT7 Y 
Sepia, and Glop.
