Re: HP PK BO

2009-02-20 by pr_roark

I've posted a graph of the Crane Silver Rag tones when printed with 
HP PK, black only, on the 1400.  See 

http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/Tones-HP-PK-CSR.jpg

CSR even hits 2.4 with the 50% dilution of HP-PK that I'll likely use 
in a matte-paper, 7500 inkset.  This will allow me to print very good 
glossy prints when I need to, and on a very stable no-OBA paper. 
(Most papers have weak maximum blacks with the 50% dilution.)

The previously posted tone graphs are linked to below.
