First prints with the UT-14 inkset.

2008-06-11 by Andre Moreau

Hello Paul,

Tonight I made my first prints with the UT-14 inkset on the Epson 1400
printer. They were made minutes after I put in refillables carts.
First printed a purge image and ascertained that the nozzle check was
good.

Glossy
Ilford Gold is back ordered for a few days at the store I placed the
order with, so for glossy I used Kirkland paper for the first time and
that was a nice surprise. I think I'll be going back to get another
pack before they raise the price :) I printed the same image with the
three profiles: N-1, LW-Warm and Warm. 

Of the three, I 'm going with the LW-Warm profile. I like the tonality
with just the right touch of warmth on the white paper base. Warm
(Sepia) will go well with some images. Can't wait for the Ilford Gold
to get here.

Matte
I made a few BO prints on Premium Matte C2S using QTR and then other
prints using the Epson driver with the HPR-N-1 profile. These last
prints  were more neutral in tonality with a little more contrast
compared to the BO print. Another nice surprise here. Will be looking
at other matte papers in the next days.

All in all, easy printing, great tonality,  choice of matte or glossy
with the same inkset and lots of room to experiments with printing
papers. I'm a happy camper.

Cheers,
Andre
