Re: [Digital BW] Purging the K line on a 4800 (African style)

2005-08-09 by Steve Kale

OK I think I can answer my own question:

A little over one sheet of A3 solid black - so two to be sure?  I printed
two sheets.  They are now lying on the floor and it is shocking how much
darker the MIS Eboni sheet, the second sheet, is!!
