> Subject: [Digital BW] DMax Sanity Check
>
> All,
>
> Below are DMax readings obtained with a Macbeth 914 for a couple of
> paper / ink combinations, to me the MIS Ebony numbers look way too
> low. I was wondering if MIS mis marked the cartridge:
>
> HPR Satin/UC: DMax 1.72(absolute) 1.64(minus base) - 85% ink load (no
> Printshield)
> Printshield lowers DMax around 0.07
>
> HPR Satin/Ebony DMax 1.55 (absolute) 1.46 (minus base) - 85% ink load
>
> The Ebony also gave very low (around 1.5) DMax on CondorBW. Ready to
> trash the Ebony.
>
> Anyone to care to share their readings to compare?
>
> Out of interest there was some discussion in the past as to whether
> the absolute DMax or the papaer white compensated DMax should be
> reported, I didn't see any firm consensus - any more thoughts?

> Thanks
