Subject: [Leica] Epson Photo EX Trick

Gareth,

I have the HP Photosmart and the Epson Photo EX and get fantastic results in black & white.  The trick is to print in color.  In other words, when you send the file to the printer, be sure you select "color" not "black & white" in the options.

What software are you using for the image processing?

Using this combination I have an 11x17 b&w image from a TMax400 CN negative using the 35mm Summicron ASPH that is just about indistinguishable from a wet print.

Your LS 20 & Photo EX should give killer results.

Bob
