Re: [Digital BW] Epson R2400 -vs- Pro 3800

2007-08-03 by Flashbulb

C.D.:

Would you describe the difference on the PRO 3800 as smoother, sharper or both? The 
reason why I ask is because one of my small nit-picks about r2400 output is that it is 
slightly soft / diffuse. If I send the exact same file to the r2400 and a Kodak RP30 Lightjet 
printer, surprisingly the Kodak RP30 print has a bit more sharpness and detail. However 
the K3 inkset offers much better color gamut on images that require it.
