Re: Opinions - What Paper (glossy) has best DMAX with UT14 inks?

2011-08-15 by Paul

It's been a while since I used UT14, but it looks like Museo SR may have had the highest dmax, I'm guessing the one output that has the high one was done with QTR.  You might try just printing a Calibration Mode test print to see if you'll be able to get what you're looking for from QTR.  You may find you have to balance the dmax with the pizza wheel susceptibility.
