Re: Hahnemühle PhotoRag 188 & 308

2006-12-11 by Tom

I made a different profile for my 308g Hahnemuhle.  Other than the
hand the blacks do seem darker even to the eye.  I am using an Epson
R1800 with an Epson Velvet Fine Art setting, Best Photo etc.  Its a
very nice paper.

I'm going to try some new B&W prints with the extended grey targets
when possible.  My family has been a little under the weather the last
week or so which severely cut into my creative time :-)  Thankfuly
that seems to be breaking so we can get back to making prints! YAY!

Tom

Which printer are both of you using?
