Re: reduce ink load setting on 2200, too?

2006-12-28 by Clayton Jones

Hi Sarah,

>...would you also recommend setting a 2200 to -5%?

I can't remember if the 2200 has the ability to do this.  If it does,
then just run some small test prints to see which setting looks best.  

When I got my 2400 the initial prints, when contrast and density were
otherwise ok, looked heavily overloaded in the blacks.  By
experimenting I found that reducing the ink load solved it, and -5%
was the most I could reduce without the prints beginning to look weak.

Regards,
Clayton
