RE: [Digital BW] Maximum Usable Black vs. Dmax - What's the Big Deal?

2009-11-24 by E.Neilsen

If you're building density all the way up to 100% that is something I
haven't done either. However, one issue with Epson printers/drivers is that
they do tend to block up. Perhaps they have lowered the density in this set.
Shilesh is asking the right question here. 

 

What type of densitometer are you using?

Terry,

Your readings that 100% patch has highest measured density is unusual. I
don't have any experience with your inkset, so that may be it. Another quick
check worth considering. Are you printing the QTR calibration chart at 100%
ink limits?
