Re: Crane silver rag curves for Epson 4000/k2

2006-10-21 by john dean

The bronzing and gloss differential with K2 and Photo Black are
unacceptable on the new fiber gloss papers for black and white, as
they are for the rc gloss papers. It is also difficult to achieve a
decent neutralish print color. Even after spraying k2 does a terrible
job. Not so with K3 though. Those inks have been reformulated for
glossy work and when sprayed the gloss prints can look nice, even in
black and white. I'm waiting to get a handle on the new HP machines
with the gloss optimiser built in. This should be a big step up.
