Re: R800-1800 Eboni -- Comparison of LensWork split-tone to Photo Rag and other

2007-05-27 by mkirschner

Hi Paul,

I've got another question, if you'll indulge me.

I know QTR doesn't support the C86/C88. But, is a similar all-Eboni
approach possible with the C86 or C88 using the Epson driver?

Perhaps with diluted Eboni in the CMY channels + ICC profiles?

I'm looking for something with the sparkle and warmth of Eboni
black-only, with perhaps a bit more smoothness than I get on my C86
with black-only. (PA 205 gives me the best smoothness for black-only.
It's often good enough for my purposes, but not always, depending on
the image.)

Just wondering whether this is a promising path to pursue, should I
decide to start tinkering instead of shelling out money for an R800 setup.

Thanks,
Mitch
