Re: New K7s, question about nozzle check

2009-07-11 by jesse.boles

I use Jon Cone's neutral k7 in our 9800 and yes that 4th position is very hard to make out.  That's normal, I have found that tossing in a sheet of glossy or pearl surface paper for your nozzle check makes it easier to see even though they are only meant to print on matte.  I use a magnifying glass lamp for close inspection of those patterns.
Cheers,
Jesse
