Re: Ink choice for producing digital negatives

2011-10-05 by Lutsky, Berel

Pigment inks will give you the tonal range and density you will need - Pictorico OHP film takes them well - be sure to turn hi speed off- in the Epson driver - use  unidirectional in the QTR - set up - give the neg a good hour to dry (no hair drier!!!) or more  if you can before printing  - slip sheet it with clean paper - handle with care - just as you would a silver process neg.  Best ink and profiles that I have used have been the K-7  transparency inkset from Inkjetmall - details on the process are at their blog.
