我们使用装有爱普生 Ultrachrome HD油墨的爱普生SureColor P800并将爱普生高级黑白设置设置为“黑色”来进行打印。我们打印在Harman Baryta Gloss FB中性纸上。亮度(反射光)向暗部下降了1.99%!使用Bruce Lindbloom的“压缩算法“得到的密度数值是2.675。但是,爱普生驱动程序不是线性的并且色调值不一致。
我们在Epson Stylus Pro 3880上使用QuadtoneRIP和我们自己的曲线重叠并且使用Piezography Pro油墨上进行了第二次打印。我们打印在了Harman Baryta Gloss FB中性纸上。亮度(反射光)向暗部下降至1.89%并且色调值是线性的。 L * 1.89的计算密度为2.679。虽然这张纸上的两个墨水量非常接近,但Pro有明显的优势。
We sold out of our first batch within 1 week. We have already delivered it and our early adopters have been printing! The inks are in their second formulation and will go on sale about the end of February.
The Piezography Pro Package will be available at the end of November.
No. Piezography Pro ink is entirely new from the ground up including the black inks, gloss optimizer, and everything in between.
We suggest that you keep things clean and organized and get new carts. However, if you are on a budget, you can clean the cartridge out very carefully with distilled water (!!!), let it drop out over night, and fill with Pro ink.
If you are going from a Piezography K7 to Pro ink set, no. We suggest you PiezoFlush your printer between color and Pro, however, this is entirely up to you. Color staining is not as much of an issue when going from Color to Pro as it was from color to K7, but it’s still there. It takes a lot of ink to completely eliminate color in printer dampers and PiezoFlush can save you money and then you have a flush kit at the ready.
Yes. We are building PiezoDN master curves for the pro inks. We recommend you stick with K7 ink for you digital negatives if this is working for you well right now.
No. The new Gloss Chroma Optimizer prints at the same time as the ink.
We are measuring a dMax of 1.81 on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag paper with this new ink. This may change slightly when we have the final production ink done but it will be very very dark indeed regardless.
