I don't see a bronze tone & don't know if it's what you call 'bronzing' or not ? It is most evident at the edges where dark & light tones meet. You say that it is inherent with this printer/inkset (2200, photo black & light black) & All the gloss/semi-gloss papers ? Now it makes sense why there aren't profiles around for this combination, darn :-( What sprays are recommended ? Looks like I have to start saving to upgrade to a better inkset/printer thanks, Frank --- In QuadtoneRIP@yahoogroups.com, Roy Harrington <roy@...> wrote: > > It sounds to me like you are seeing what is often called "bronzing". > Unfortunately this is a function of the ink on photo paper (rather than matte). > The original UltraChrome inks typically do this.
