Thanks Walker. I’m attaching the zip file here. I have also emailed your gmail account and the techsupport email with the zip file if this doesn’t work.
Inside are linearised warm and cool quads for the Signa Smooth (fine art cotton rag) and Lyve (canvas), linearised from the Hahnemuhle photo rag quad. There is also an excel spreadsheet with measurements of 5% increments from all the inks in calibration mode.
Visually I’ve deduced that black (and total ink) limit for the Signa shouldn’t be above 65%, and the Lyve canvas even lower (50–55%). Above those values I start seeing a reflective sheen in the blacks when viewed at an angle. I’ve also noticed in the other inks (the greys) on the Signa that values over 65% start appearing noisy/grainy. Looking through a 10% loupe it seems the ink is pooling/settling in the troughs in the texture of the paper and appears darker there than the high points.
Thanks for the help!
Jeremy
