Liam,
It's all three color inks, no black ink, something only the C80 does.
Pictorico OHP, no colorize methods. I'm definately using more magenta ink
than the others, and can see it in the negative, so perhaps I am colorizing
without intending to, an artifact of the Epson driver for the paper it
thinks I'm using.
I'm making a neg now where I've given back some of the density to avoid the
extreme black and white ends of the epson driver, bad juju in there, should
have about 1.1 end to end by the densitometer, so should print as a 1.65 or
so. Back to the gold chloride.
Larry

Larry,
What method are you using, what film, and what colour do you print?
Thanks,
Liam

For whomever is making inkjet negatives, I've stated earlier that I thought
I was getting more uv density out of my Epson C80 neg's than my densitometer
readings told me. I finally ran an inkjet stepwedge against a stoufers
stepwedge and shure enough the 1.25 densitometer measured inkjet stepwedge
is matching 13 steps or more on the stoufers, a density of about 1.95. Now
that I'm not blindly throwing gold in as a contrasting agent my prints are
looking better as well <g>.
Larry
