Roger,
We have also been looking at these images, and have found the black channel
to be quite heavy.
My thinking is that if the images were 'perfect' and prepared for 'easy'
printing, then everyone could get great results, with having their equipment
setup 'any which way'.
Now where would the fun be in that then ?
Darrin.
