Spotting finished prints

Spotting finished prints

2002-02-16 by frankg_photo

occasionally I see little "white" flaws that I'd rather spot than 
reprint - anyone had experience using what ? Spotone, the inks 
themselves, pencil ?

Why not use the inks themselves?

If you use a CIS, you have four pots of retouching ink just to the right of
your printer ;)

I've used spotone and pencil with some success.  I
always try to spot first, reprint second.  Using the
inks sounds like a good idea.  I was never a good
print spotter to begin with, so thankgoodness for PS
and the clone tool minimizing spotting to the
occational white speck due to flaking.
