Re: [QuadtoneRIP] UV transmisison characteristics of Epson K3 inks

2014-03-05 by David Kachel

After I introduced this method of profiling with the K3 inks on my carbon
forum several people adopted with the comment that they found it much easier
to work with than multi-gray value methods.

Please, will you be so kind as to direct me to what you or others have
written on the subject?


On another note, today I printed the same plate on eight different papers,
just because I had the paper and the time, and wanted to see what difference
papers would make.

I was surprised to find how very similar the prints looked and how much
easier than I had anticipated it was to ink a plate consistently from one
print to the next. The curve is still steep, but I'm makin' progress.
