That is something I have not tested yet, and intend to do soon, meaning,
determining how dark the blacks are in a B&W image (made with blacks only,
without the addition of any chromatic inks) on a semi-glossy or glossy
substrate printed with the HP Z-3100.
My ideal aim would be to match the black value of L* 4 that I am able to hit
on Epson Premium Luster paper using an Epson 4800 in Advanced B&W mode.
For my own B&W work, I would consider quite disappointing a deepest-black
value that reaches no lower than L* 15.
But we'll see.
