Digital BW, The Print

Hello Bob,

My response to the K3 printers is based on several 4800 prints that
were properly profiled.  They were sent to me a while before I printed
the ramp on the 2400.  The ramp is on Photo Rag and was not specially
profiled, but it's irrelevant to the point I have been trying to make
(this is just like the color dot thing all over again - sigh).  It is
just an example to underscore a very simple point, and that is that
prints made with color inks look different than prints made without
color inks and I like the latter better than the former.  It's that
simple.  The K3 prints I've seen are unconvincing to me.  And the fact
that it uses yellow makes me even more wary.  If everyone else likes
it that's great and I'm happy for them.  It's just not what I'm
looking for.  I'm sorry if that makes some people uncomfortable.    

I'm going to continue looking for an LK forumla that will do what I
want in a 2K approach with QTR.  Even if it requires using a small
amount of color ink I think it's going to be the best compromise (not
that I like the idea <g>).  


Regards,
Clayton
