I shot a couple who requested a b&w print, and when I printed it on my hp d7360, there is a green tint around the outer edges of the womans hair. I would post an example, but it only shows up on the print. Chris

My solution was to set the printer to monochrome while printing B&W shots. Mike, The Keeper of the Archive

I would post an example, but it only shows up on the print. Any ideas why this is happening? Black and white is not very good when your printer has only one (and some say two) black inks. What your printer is supposed to do for the shades of gray is to depost equal volumes of the color inks to the pixel on the paper. Unfortunately, most printers aren't all that great at depositing the same volume, thus you can get a color cast. This happens on color prints, too, but it's not conspicuous. The best solution is to go with all black ink sets, like those sold by Mediastreet. "Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.

Do you lose tonal gradations by doing this? I've heard this is the primary reason for using for not doing monochrome.
