Indelible color inks, cross posted

Indelible color inks, cross posted

2001-11-03 by Tyler Boley

This is a very initial report, primarily to see how these compare with Generations and Cone's color Piezograghy inks. Tested 
on a 1200 w/ CIS on Lysonic Fine Art. All are RGB profiles made with Profiler Pro and Spectrocam on the glossy film setting to 
see how the inks compared when all put down exactly the same.
Black point (LAB)-
Generations- 18  0.0  0.0
Conetech-  21  0.0  0.0
Indelible-  21  0.0  1.0

2.d gamut comparison here-

The Indelibles appear to be able to put down higher ink percentages before mottle and bleed than Generations, so gamut 
and black point could probably be enhanced with other media settings or a RIP.
Tweaking and subject impressions will come later. Most relevant to this groups is that a neutral, sepia tone, and bluetoner 
aproximation appeared pleasing under all light sources, though metamerism is not non existant, just minimal and not 
garish.
