RE: MIS k4 black density

2005-11-29 by Jeff Magidson

Carl and others;

On the R2400 I believe that Photo RPM ( does anyone know what RPM in 
this case stands for ? ) prints at 5760 x 1440 dpi and PhotoBest prints 
at 2880 x 1440.

In my tests I have found only a very slight difference between the 
dither quality using the Photo RPM -vs-  PhotoBest settings. The 
difference is only visible with a loupe.

Since the PhotoBest sitting is faster and uses less ink, I prefer it.

Greg,

Print settings were identical for prints made with Epson and MIS
inks.  I used 2880 (Photo RPM, HS un-checked) in both cases.  The
dmax difference is a real ink difference and not due to different
driver settings.
