Re: [Digital BW] Re: 2400 vs 2200 using IJC or QTR

Hi Roy,

As I said in an earlier post, with the R2400 the neutral toning is done with 
light magenta and light cyan througout the whole range 0-250, and yellow is 
also used from 5-250. Amounts of toning are variable, but at 210 for example 
(where only the smallest dots are used for each ink) 72% of the ink was llk, 
16% lm, 10% lc, and 1% Y. At 250, the llk was 82%, with 9% lm, 7.5% lc, and 
1.5% Y.

The PK ink is used from 0-90, the lk ink from 0-170, and the llk ink from 
20-250. No inks
are used at 255 unless you check the Highlight Point Shift box.


At lower levels where PK, lk, and llk are used, I can't compare proportions 
since different ink size drops are used, and I'm not certain how their 
volumes compare. No EscP manual yet for the R2400.

PS You need to update your prog again for the latest inks!

 But to make a cool print the same LC and LM
inks are used in the highlights so they are probably not very different than
before.
