Summary

One of the impressive things about the Epson P600 is its handling of black and white images. There are 4 different black links inside the printer. Three of these inks work in combination to print over a wider dynamic range than just using one ink. There are two different blacks that are selectable depending on the paper you are using (1 for photo-gloss and 1 for matte finish). Note that switching between the blacks will use up a little bit of ink, but Epson has minimized this considerably.

0:00.0	What's up everybody, welcome back to the art of photography. My name is Ted Forbes and in this video I want to talk about black and white inkjet printing and how to get the best results, what some of the problems you're going to see are and how to get around those.

0:19.4	and I was originally going to do black and white
0:21.1	as part of that.
0:21.7	And then I realized that this is really
0:23.4	complex enough to make a separate video with because there are a lot of

0:56.8	biggest problems that you're going to have when you do that is a color cast and
0:59.5	these are two different images this one on the right was done about eight years ago,
1:03.6	I want to say.
