roller marks with 3800 (was: Re: Epson 3800 for digital negatives? )

2006-12-22 by Steven Karafyllakis

David;

The paper in question was not FAP, but Premier's Platinum Luster Rag 
which mau behave very differently-it certainly prints differently, 
the best Dmax I got out of it was 2.03. The printer has a very 
elaborate platen adjustment procedure, and the problem may go away 
once the gap (and pressure on the paper) is adjusted properly. Don't 
panic yet.
