Digital BW, The Print

Piotr, Your english is just fine. 

> I have noticed that sometimes after applying the curve (mostly NC) the print looks strange in some parts of midtone and shadow areas after coming out of the printer, visible for example shadow area of the face(under the chin) this was not visible when the image was greayscale and later converted to rgb. 

What do you mean "When the image was grayscale and later converted to rgb."

That is the way to do it. You have a black and white image. Then convert
it to RGB, then load Paul's curve, and print using the color inks. You
do NOT apply the curve to a color image. It should start out as
grayscale, THEN convert to RGB.

Piotr, I'm not sure I was clear on this:

You can start out with any kind image you want. What I meant is that you
wouldn't apply a Paul Roark curve
to an image that was in full color on your monitor. It must be converted
to grayscale, but remain in the RGB mode.
I think that is more clear than what I just sent you!

Jerry,
that was exactly how I worked with the image. Maybe I am to picky. It 
is not a major issue in my prints but I see it in some areas.I also 
compare them to my original MIS printouts where the problem did not 
occur.(but I like the VM set much more)
I will now try to compare different prints to determine in which 
tonevalue the problems shows up.
