Clayton, I'm not sure where this idea of full coverage came from. It's
mostly mentioned here on this list. Anywhere else, it's all about
density measurements, whatever the "coverage".
It's no suprise to me that density can increase beyond the full
coverage point. I'm sure none of these inks are truly opaque.
If there was considerable dry time between passes, you'd see even
higher densities.
Consider those working with double pass printing, higher densities.
