Re: K7 sample print, neutrality, and dmax

Dean,

The 2200 print I was refering to was the K7 sample print and the UC
QTR neutral print was done on a 9600 with MK using the Photo Rag
curves at 70c/30w. That was a typo below that does't equal 100%! I
have also used 75/25 and 80/20 with excellent results on Photo Rag and
Innova S.C. for slightly cooler hues. I assume doing this on a 2200
would vary more from machine to machine but I imagine this would be close.

John
