Re: Question on Paul's EbHp setup

2010-01-21 by horstenj

Thanks Paul for the elaborate response. Being partly a confirmation and partly a correction it's very helpful. For instance, I was (of course) aware of the gloss incompatibility of Eboni, but just assumed its dilutions would cause no problem. Furthermore, I had not realized the "split-tone behaviour" HP inks.

Wrt to warm toner: you suggest to consider a single EZ-warm. What's the density compared to MIS LK and LLK? I happen to have a stock of both LK and LLK. I could easily mix them to create an intermediate density. For future use I could slightly dilute LK.

Based on your feedback I'm tempted to go for

MK
PK 100%
LPK 50%
LLPK 25%
LLLPK 12%
LLLLPK 6%
warm toner (LK / LLK mix)
glop

I don't full grasp your reasoning wrt the distribution of the dilutions over the ink slots to achieve Epson driver compatibility. How would you distribute the set above?

Of course I'll report ack but appreciate that I'm now collecting the equipment and materials so I'll need some time to sort everything out.

Regards,

Joost
