Title: Canon Pro 9500 v Epson 3800
Post by: dan in marin on November 28, 2008, 10:34:33 am
Hello, new to the forum, this is very useful to beginners in the field.  

Last year I received a new Canon 9500 for a gift and I have been using it with custom profiles (built with eye1 Basic).  I have been getting good results on all but B & W.  The forum here seems very high on Epson.  Will bronzing of B & W be reduced using papers that have some level of coating on a Epson 3800?  Currently, my efforts with Canon Pro semi gloss in B & W result in the dark areas viewed from an angle have a sheen without detail that is not pleasing.  Matte or non lustre papers are better, but the darks overall still seems to be lacking in detail.

Any advice or is this a symptom of the 9500?

thanx
