Digital BW, The Print

You can go up a significant step in quality without giving up either 
color, or matte/RC printing simply by using an LK in place of the gloss 
cart. The only (minor) draw-backs are: 
1)that some glossy papers show a bit of gloss differential. I stick to 
satin-semigloss papers. 
2) There are no 'canned' curves for this configuration-you'll have to 
learn to make your own if you haven't already. It's not too hard, and 
if you use Tom Moore's 'ideal densities' charts ( to linearize your 
curves) at the back of the user's guide, you can get outstanding 
results without a densitometer.
