Digital BW, The Print

Hello Paul,

> I agree these are very nice papers.  However, with dilute Eboni carbon inks they do not print with a cool tone.  See page 9 of http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/7800-Carbon-6.pdf  The Lab B of the non-OBA Alise is almost identical to H. Photo Rag.  

Ok, that's good to know.  How about with a pure undiluted Eboni-only  inkset (IOW, BO)?  Are you still using one of those sets?

Also, do you have a dmax reading for pure Eboni black?  Since I have no Eboni printer right now I can't test and update the Eboni side of my chart.  But if you have the Dmax readings I can add it.

 
> Premier Art Smooth BW Fine Art paper prints with a notably more neutral tone with dilute Eboni.  It's what I'll continue to use and recommend for a neutral-cool image with the Eboni/Carbon-6 inksets.

Understood.


Regards,
Clayton
