Black & White Profile

Post by ramestica »

Hi,

the Print color chart dialog has a chart type option 'Black & White Profile'.

Can you comment if this is a good choice for an Epson Stylus Photo R2400 with which I print monochrome only? (loaded with Epson Ultra Chrome K3).

On the other hand, are Black & Gray Profiles to be used with color mode equal 'Gray Photo' only?

Thanks,
Rodrigo

Hello Rodrigo,

the "Black & White" profile type has more black and grey patches for a better calibration of black and grey tones. The profile also includes color patches, so you will also be able to print in color using that profile - however color accuracy is not quite as good as with a normal color profile.
