That does sound interesting. Any idea whether it will be available in UK/Europe?

Hi David,

That color would be consistent with that inkset and the PT/PD UV processes. It would also be commonly the most dense color.... maybe G255/R40 is closer.

Pictorico will soon be releasing a new film called Contact Printing Film that will take an ink configuration setting of +50 .... that might also be a solution.

Best Wishes,
Mark

Unfortunately I threw away the CDRP! Foolish I know. However I suspect the lightest tone would have been around G255 R30.

I think I could now get a paper white if I were to bleach the print. It is possible to do so without visibly affecting the darkest tones. The results can be very nice as they are less blue, and tonality doesn't seem to suffer.

I'm glad you liked the prints.
