Mark -
No problem with the plug, it is on topic. I am using an Epson Color 1160, which can be called an old printer, though it allows me to go to 13X19. Were I to use pigmented inks in it do you think that I would be able to get the proper density? I purchased some Pictorico OCP Transparency Film thinking that that would help, which it did, but not enough. I guess if I have to crank out some cash for a new printer I can do that, but would prefer to spend the money on film and paper. <g>
Cheers -
george

If you are using Epson Archival Pigment inks, such as in the 2000p, they will have less density to UV light than the Ultrachrome inks such as in the 2200. The Dye based inks in the 1280 and other printers have the most UV density. Comparisons of the actualy densities are in my eBook on the subject- Precision Digital Negatives for Silver & Other Alternative Photographic Processes.<BR>

Sorry for the shameless plug. I also wrote a chapter for Dick Arentz's new edition of Platinum & Palladium Printing, which should be out very soon.<BR>

Are you using pigmented ink? I have not been able to get enough density with my ink jet printer.<BR>
