Re: 1280 BO printing looks too light

That's exactly right, and there's nothing wrong about that approach. 
You hit upon a combination that works for you.  But it might not work
for someone with a different monitor/graphics card, etc.  The approach
I took in the article was to explain the principle and how it works,
with the idea that once that is understood each user can find their
own "sweet spot".  Sort of like the old "give a man a fish or teach
him how to fish" proverb.  So I guess it's the really same thing from
different angles.  

But we still don't know why Mo's output is so light.  Just doesn't
make sense.  I'm stumped.  Do you have any other ideas?

Regards,
Clayton
