Re: [Digital BW] 3MK Disappointment

2007-09-05 by Eric Miner

Thanks Paul. It's not that I expect grainless prints. But, I am used to 
it being very hard to see individual droplettes with the naked eye. So 
far for me I can see the droplettes very easily with 3MK. I need to 
understand why Eboni's density would affect the grainieness of the 
print. There's a lot I have to learn in this area can you poiont me to 
some resources I can study?

Thanks for all your help and input on this,

Eric
