Speaking of gray balancing inkjet printers, someone was telling earlier this
week, how humidity can be a factor in how well the ink adheres to the
substrate and how much it can influence the initial appearance of the print.
This place is running three 9600s in parallel and has set them up in a
humidity control room locked at 50% level. I have not figured out yet how
much credence to give to this idea but does anyone have ever found humidity
to be a factor in obtaining good and consistent results from inkjet
printers? I always thought that humidity played an important role in color
laser printer, because of the electrostatic nature of the toner deposition,
but not in inkjet printers?
