Re: [Digital BW] Re: K7 in large format printers

2005-09-15 by Carl Schofield

I have some k7 inks on the way and will report next week.  However,  
I'm not using the full k7 set in my 4000.  I followed Jenny Ellerbe's  
lead and I'm going with a dual quad setup in my 4000.  I'll be using  
the k7 matte K with the piezo carbon sepia grays (3 inks) for a warm  
quad and with three of the k7 grays (inks 3, 5, and 7) for a neutral  
quad on the other side.  I'd rather have the flexibility of using two  
quads with consistent colors that I like (plus the options of split  
toning and blending when I want them) versus using just the k7  
neutral setup for perhaps marginal improvement of tonal smoothness in  
some prints.
