Digital BW, The Print

Tyler, then you can see what the operator or printer REALLY adds to the
process instead of what the techno is making happen even if one first was
required to calibrate. Now that is a challenge; not just reading and
executing directions on calibration. That is why I suggest doing two types
of files.

Clayton, I recall this file from before. Sorry but I can't recommend
it. It's untagged, the histo in the grad portion is broken, the
stepwedge portion is not clean, there are non-white artifacts around
the line test section, and (less important) it's 8 bit.
Other than that, it's perfect!!!
Interestingly, with a less than ideal file, the more precise systems
may make the least appealing prints.
