Re: LK and LLK used in color printing with Epson 7800?

2014-12-24 by richard@...

I am pretty sure I am remembering this correctly: The Epson light light black ink incorporates a gloss optimizer and is designed to cover the entire print area. You might notice that there is a slight difference if you print pure white on larger sheet of paper (feed a larger paper than is set in the driver settings)

I've been printing lots of big color prints with light backgrounds and use almost twice as much light light black than any of the other colors.

I think if there is any chance of wanting to make color prints to stick with the OEM inks and use a dedicated black and white printer for messing with additional inks in different slots.
