Printing BW prints from LR3
« on: August 27, 2010, 05:32:24 pm »
I just finished listening to Jeff and Michael's recent tutorial on LR3 re the print module.
For printing BW Jeff recommended using the Adobe RGB display profile when choosing a printer profile since the Epson printer was expecting this profile.
Prior to the release of LR 3 I have been using Eric Chan's ABW profiles that he has developed for several papers eg. Ilford Gold Fiber Silk.
Now I have to admit am a little confused....
Anyone have some thoughts about this issue?
Thanks

If you have an Epson 3800 or 3880, follow Eric Chan's workflow with his ABW profile.  It will give you the best B&W results.
