Re: Is QTR truly neutral?

2005-02-20 by john dean

With my 9600 on rag media they are absolutely neutral and without metamerism. Even 
some of the quad inksets I've used had far more metamerism.

This rip is for real. I have not tried it with glossy media and the Epson photo black ink yet. 

Does anyone have experience with that?
