Art, I understood (from reading Bruce Fraser?) that there is an advantage in sending 16-bit files to an Epson printer. I can't lay my hands on the article for the moment, but there would certainly be an advantage in using Photoshop to convert the file in your working space to the printer's color space in 16-bit, before sending it to the printer. I also seem to remember that there is another benefit of letting the printer driver reduce the file to 8-bit, rather than doing it in PS before sending it.
Bob Frost. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arthur Entlich" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I see no advantage to keeping an image in 16 bit mode for printing purposes. No printing technique has the color range to make use of 16 bit color depth (I'm assuming you are using an RGB or other color image with 16 bits per color (48 bit) or is it a monochromic image at 16 bits total?) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
