eye4clr, It is amazing that Onyx 7.1 doesn't mention or change the defaults on ink limits on the ICC options! Again, taking your advice and setting to 280 on the ICC options creates a considerable ink savings and an improvement in overall tonality. I noticed on the 6.5 media guide a screenshot showing the ink limit in the ICC options set to 260, which now I realize can also work well, however they make no mention or suggestion to do so. In summary... after setting ink restrictions as discussed in the previous thread, the only time one should limit the ink prior to the ICC is when having issues that may effect the printing of the patches then finally apply the 260 - 320 ink limit at options build time. Correct? Thanks again, JC
