Agfa copyjet + K7 Piezography ink

[s-i-a-m]

Hello,

I have read that it is possible to produce digital negatives with the Piezography ink on Pictorico material.
But how about the Agfa copyjet film?

I'd like to clear that before I purchase this ink set.

Thanks.

Stephan

IME, Agfa Selectjet/Copyjet is 1-1 equivalent to Pictorico (just with a slightly cleaner and thinner base), I suspect it's the same manufacturer that makes the surface coating - my curves are same for both. Therefore, IME, if something works with Pictorico it will definitely work with Agfa too... (Please note that I have not practical experience with the combination you're asking about!)

Regards,
Loris.

Pictorico handle more ink than copyjet and other transparency I know. So you can get higher DMax with it. you should use process which need these higher dmax. With K7 it works perfectly.

I know of a great film which is an excellent replacement for the Pictorico and the agfa film. The film was tested by Peter Hogan in the UK and approved. The company selling this product is PerfectProof and it is called PlatinumClassic. This company also sells a black ink for the epson printers with which you can reach a DMax of more than 4.
