Why would switching from AM to FM result in an ink savings?
It does Brian but I've no good explanation for it.
A hand waving explanation would be that FM uses the ink more
efficiently by spreading it thinner over a greater area.
Or to put it another way, conventional screening wastes ink
by piling it on the dot making the dot darker, when the overall
reflectivity is already determined by the not dot area.
