Hi Daniel,
This is a difficult question to answer. It is like asking which of
Beethoven's symphonies is the loudest. There are many aspects of a
color gamut. It is very difficult to describe it in a single term
"largest". One printer may produce better blues, but be slightly
smaller in the red saturation. One may produce better blacks, but have
less saturated greens. It is impossible to reduce the description to a
single term like smaller or larger.
You may be able to measure the volume of a given printer's gamut, but
that will not mean that it produces the best blacks or tonal range.
There are far too many aspects of the quality of printing produced by a
printer to be reduced it to a single word.
You can say that glossy papers can produce longer tonal scales than
matte papers due to the surface reflections.
Hope this helps,
Ray
