Re: Bronzing effect on blacks

2008-02-16 by Roger

I use the UTR2 inkset with the R220.  Be sure to use the PK ink not 
Eboni (MK).  I don't find bronzing very noticable at all with this 
inkset.  There's a bit on Epson Premium Semigloss, but very little on 
other papers.  

You might try a different paper- my recent find is Harmon FB Baryta 
AL which looks great and has incredibly deep blacks.  Use UPGPP Photo 
RPM and check super microweave.
