Hello Bob, Roy pointed out that CS5 converts to "generic gray gamma 2.2" on printing. I verified this by creating a step wedge in this profile and checking the print values. So the solution is easy, work with your BW images in CS5 using "generic gg 2.2" and the problem is solved. I've been using this with success for both inkjet prints and digital negatives. Let me know if you have more questions. And congratulations on your award in the Ivanitsky photo competition! -Harlan [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
