Re: [Digital BW] Dmax of K3 that low?

2006-12-04 by Ernst Dinkla

Igor,

Which company in the Netherlands could you persuade to change
black inks for one print ?

Did they use 1440 unidirectional. Use QTR to get the highest
inklimit + a linearisation. Or at least the best paper setting
with ABW to get it right. Use a RIP that does B&W nicely. A
profile to get tone range perceptually right ?

If they did that you could expect something that comes close
in Dmax and kept the tonal range correct. Very few will do
that here.


Met vriendelijke groeten, Ernst
