Re: [PRODIG] Piezography

[Andy D'Angelo]

John,
I started off using the original piezo insets with an epson 1160 and the CIS system. It worked wonderfully right out of the box. I use the system primarily for B&W portraits/ press releases on glossy and matt paper, do not use it everyday, and I am really pleased with the results. the original Piezo inks do exhibit a warming effect if the prints are left out( I have a shot of the kids on the fridge, it has "warmed" beautifully and resembles a slightly brown toned B&W print. Customer prints stored in typical filing cabnets do not seem to warm as noticably and reproduce well. A few photoshop tricks in converting from RBR to greyscale help the printing a lot. The newer generation of Piezo inks are more neutral in tonality and supposedly have a longer tonal range. Paper choices, of course, vary the results. Tetenal duo mat and epson heavy weight matt and Cone Tec Glosssy are my choices.
