Digital BW, The Print

All,

Just printed Paul's 21stepNew.jpg file and I'm missing the 0% to 20% 
scale. It just prints white. I am using an Epson 1280 with the ARC 
T007 and ARC T009 FSN Carts, printing on Epson Achival Matte paper. I 
am using the Cone driver. Is there a fix for this? Normal? I 
appreciate any advise and suggestions.

Hello all,

Can someone tell me if there is a significant difference between "Paul
Roark's New & Improved 21-step Wedge" jpg file and the one found at
MIS on this page (towards the bottom):

http://www.inksupply.com/index.cfm?source=html/quadtone.html

Last week I downloaded and printed the MIS one with my 1160 and I'm
happy to say got a beautiful, smooth print of the wedge.

A post today mentioned Paul's however and I'm wondering if I should
try that too and will it help or tell me anything different?

(Sorry for the newbie question)

BTW, I'm using an 1160, MIS FS inks and Peizo driver, sometimes Epson
Driver with Randall workflow.  Also I have an MIS CFS arriving next
week with FS-N inks.

Thanks.

Best regards,
 Richard

Richard,

I think the one in the Files section has the top and bottom 5% in 1%
increments.  That can be where the trouble is with some curves.

Paul

Richard,

A great 21-step wedge file can be found in the Files section of the group
homepage in folder:

Files > Image processing

The URL (if it doesn't line wrap) is:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint/files/Image%20pro
cessing/

This was done by Paul. You will also find another very useful file for
evaluating your workflow and that is the "Tyler's Zee's" file which is in
the same folder at the bottom.

Glenn,

I replaced the Tylers_Zees.sit file with a TIFF file.

A file with the extension .sit is a StuffIt file. StuffIt has been to the
Mac world what WinZip has been to the Windows world. However, StuffIt works
in both and is a free, handy utility to have on your computer. You can get
it at:
