MIS VM in Epson SP 5000 - status report

MIS VM in Epson SP 5000 - status report

2002-08-12 by ake_vinberg

Hi all,

I have now installed the MIS VM inks in my Epson 5000. After a few 
hiccups (like using the wrong source color space) I am now getting 
decent grayscale ramps using Paul Roark's curves for Epson 870/1270, 
which he advised me to use as a starting point.

The Epson 5000 driver does not have support for the more modern 
papers, so I am not sure which paper setting to use (PQ Ink Jet 
Paper, PQ Glossy Paper, PQ Glossy Film, Ink Jet Back Light Film). 
Other than that, the ramps come out looking fairly good on EAM, but 
there is of course some small tweaking to do.

Best regards,

Åke
