Re: [Digital BW] Re: ABW vs. color-managed workflow for B&W prints

2007-12-18 by Carl Schofield

Do your green/blue prints also look magenta under incandescent  
lighting?  An RGB workflow (custom profile or not) that uses the  
Epson driver will probably result in quite a bit of yellow ink in the  
mix to generate near neutral prints.  This can lead to metamerism and  
if the profile isn't perfect also color crossovers and casts.
