Description

This book covers:

• Why calibration is difficult with dichromate sensitized emulsions.
• Why highlights are difficult to print in carbon.
• Theory behind variable contrast and supercoated emulsions.
• How to make variable contrast and supercoated emulsions.
• How to calibrate those emulsions for carbon printing.
• How to make prints.

Since this book is only 21 pages long, there is a lot that is not covered. It’s really just a chapter for a book I’m working on for carbon printing, but it will be years until I publish that book. In the meantime, this book is meant to supplement other resources on carbon printing. Below are some samples of carbon transfer prints made with inkjet negatives.
