Epson 2400, K3 inks, CSR, and Bowhaus RIP

Epson 2400, K3 inks, CSR, and Bowhaus RIP

2006-10-11 by mxgo95747

I been using the Bowhaus RIP with K3 inks on CSR paper.  Bowhaus has two profiles for this 
paper:  neutral (using pK, LLK, LK, LC, and LM) and tritone (Pk, LK, and LLK).  After trying the 
tritone on the paper, I finally found a tone that I like.  

I tried using Epson pK, and MIS LKand MIS LLK and found the overall tone a very light tan, 
which I did not like.  The Bowhaus has a tone as described by C. James of Bowhaus :

"For this image, I wanted to use ONLY the gray/black inks and completely bypass the color 
inks. The gray/black inks are the most lightfast (archival) and I personally like the slightly 
warm/olive look of the gray/black K3 inks."

I thought the forum might be interested in the above.
