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

2014-12-27 by tyler@...

just want to confirm the point that all 3 K Epson inks are used in color printing. "grey component replacement" utilized when turning your RGB numbers into vaible data to drive each ink tank utilizes all 3 to varying degrees up the neutral axis and in fact in many of the less than saturated colors. This improves metamerism problems, ink load, neutrality, and of course dmax. As mentioned the LLK seems to have a lot of the GO in it as well. Color performance would change dramatically if replaced with different densities.
