Black and White mode of the Z3100 driver.
On Photorag measured on the QTR 4x21 step target (two extra 
sheets of Photorag underneath it) an average D 1.772 - L 13.77
On EEM same method  D 1.595 - L 18.10

I must have some data from a Colorfoto test of several 
papers and the big three A3 printer models with the Dmax if 
I recall it correctly. B9180 included Will dig for it. Most 
likely measured on ICC controlled color mode which may not 
be optimal for black Dmax.
