OK, thanks. I'll let him know that maybe he's not that far off the mark then. Just seemed strange that the third party inks which are all pigment would do better than the OEM ink with its portion of dye. When I compared it to what I get with a matte similar to Eboni, it seemed real low, I get 1.72 to 1.73 on GE depending on how the spectro reads that single patch. If I run the printer at the real full output, this ink achieves the 1.7x at about 50%, and holds it all the way to the end. Which is one thing Eboni would never do for me, a few steps past maximum and the density started to drop again.
