I forget the exact settings that work well but there are lots of references on the web. You don't get a particularly neutral print but you lose the obnoxious crossovers. Some people with this printer print b+w using only the black ink in 2880 dpi mode and report great success. I presume you are converting to grayscale before printing? - -- John Brownlow http://www.pinkheadedbug.com - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
