Re: [Digital BW] "Tabloid" sized printer selection recommendations please
2001-12-14 by Jerry Olson
Best Bet, Epson 1280 printer, CIS from nomorecarts.com , ana the MIS VM inkset. Just before printing, use one of Paul Roark's curves, either the warm, medium warm, neutral, cool, or cold. Best bet on papers, Torchon/Royal Riviera for deepest blacks, get the royal riviera version at mediastreet.com for 1/3 the price of Torchon. Same paper. Epson Archival Matte for best all around quality at a great price, Legion Photo Matte Paper, 230 Gsm Brightcube's Eclipse Satine paper, comes in 190 and 300 GSMS
