Mike Neil Barstow just profiled an 1160 using Small Gamut inks for me. Great results. > (SNIP) > What are people's experiences using the Marrutt > canned profiles with mono prints? > Hit and miss, as profiles seem to be very printer dependent. I get damned good results from my 890 (running quad blacks on Lyson 265 Satin) using Lyson's generic profile. However, results ain't so good on the 1160 using the generic Fine Art profile on Hahnemule PhotoRag. On the other hand, I've heard of folks getting great results from the same combo; the printer effect I suspect. Horses for courses but, as the Lyson profiles cost nowt, it's probably worth risking a few sheets of stock to see if you can get the results you need. However, if you need ultimate quality, Mr Barstow's yer man ...and no, I'm not on commission!! ;-) ATB JB =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
