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

2014-03-05 by <sanking@...>

Peter,

I added readings to the chart for the Epson 7800 so you can see them side by side with the R3000. As you can tell, there are a few significant differences between the two printers at 100%, but at 25% not so much. In the table the top row of density values is for the 7800, the bottom row the R3000.
