B3 (vs. BO) printing

2006-12-25 by David Keenan

I am honored that my suggestion of the "B3" terminology for K/LK/LLK ink
printing (vs. BO) has met with general acceptance.

It feels great to play a small part in this brave new community of fine art
inkjet black and white printing.

Special thanks to Clayton and Paul for all their contributions to date.

So far I have been very satisfied with ABW prints from my 2400. I did make
some Eboni BO prints awhile back on a 2200 that I will now never be able to
duplicate.

I'm still trying to make the decision whether to jump off of the 3800 fence
-- but all indications are that if I am satisfied with ABW prints from a
2400, I will be equally pleased with those from a 3800. Is there a consensus
on this?

Although the possibility of wheel marks (or added dry time) when making my
Innova F ABW prints still concerns me a bit.

I guess that there is only one way to know for sure if there's gonna be a
problem or not...

Dave.
