Re: Printing on glossy paper?

2005-05-23 by Djon

Curves DO affect bronzing... the result of yellow, reportedly. 

There's no bronzing in B&W when you print "black-only" but with QTR 
it's going to show up on glossy or semi-gloss, if only a little.

IMO the easiest way to defeat bronzing is to use matte paper. But if 
you need a handsome high gloss with minimal bronzing, try Moab 
Kokopelli.
