RE: [Digital BW] UT-3D vs UT7

2006-10-07 by Terry Ritz

So, UT--3D is as much about refining UT-7 as it is about broadening tonal
possibilities.

I notice the QTR curves for UT-7 do not use LK, either the warm or cool
ones. Do you know why?

There have been some issues with ink consistency, I believe related to LK.
Did this impact both UT7 and UT-3D? Has it been corrected yet?
