Eric,
I think I commented on the idea of trying to use just Light Black and Light
Light Black ink to make a negative and I thought it might lack density for
longer exposure scale alt processes.... Carlos wanted to avoid using the matte
black so he wouldn't have to change cartridges and waste ink...which makes
sense... but it would seem avoiding black all together and using just color inks is
a much easier way to go and you can get variations in density easily....
I was playing with the R2400 K3 inks today and was able to get density ranges
from:
Lowest UV Density Range : Log .14 (base) — Log 0.64
Highest UV Density Range : Log .14 (base) — Log 4.00
This was without any of the black inks.
