Some printers have methods to deal with this problem.<\/p>\n<p>Epson, for example, has a technology called the Advanced Black and White mode \u2013 ABW \u2013 which uses its black and grey inks before it starts using the coloured inks, to give a better greyscale.<\/p>\n<p>Some HP printers, meanwhile, enable the user to replace the entire colour cartridge with one that contains shades of black ink, for great quality mono prints.<\/p>\n<h2>Shoot in coulour \u2013 convert later<\/h2>\n<p>Unless you want to get b&amp;w prints straight from the media card, it\u2019s best to shoot in colour and do your mono conversions using software such as Photoshop Elements afterwards.<\/p>\n<p>This gives you much more control over the final result. If you do want to produce in-camera black and white, some cameras enable you to make a mono duplicate of your colour file. In Nikon DSLRs this feature is accessed via the camera\u2019s retouch menu. This is in addition to the greyscale mode where you actually shoot in black and white.<\/p>\n<h2>Go Sepia<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2146\" title=\"black and white image 3 big\" src=\"http:\/\/www.phototechnique.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/black-and-white-image-3-big-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" \/>Mono pictures don\u2019t have to be just grey. Try adding a coloured tint such as the ever-popular sepia, for a warm, nostalgic feel.<\/p>\n<p>The quickest way to do this is to select Colour Balance and add +30 red and -20 yellow. This is a start point. Adjust the colour sliders until you get the effect you want.<\/p>\n<h2>Use DXo Film pack<\/h2>\n<p>If you really want to get the look of film \u2013 and perhaps not just any film but a specific film \u2013 DxO filmpack is a great way to do this.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a software plug-in that enables you to replicate many common film types in quite convincing style. Go, on, give your shots that Tri-X or HP5 look \u2013 you know you want to. Visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dxo.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.dxo.com<\/a> for more details.<\/p>\n<h2>Profiles &amp; calibration<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2147\" title=\"black and white image 4 big hueyforsupp\" src=\"http:\/\/www.phototechnique.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/black-and-white-image-4-big-hueyforsupp-213x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"213\" height=\"300\" \/>For the most accurate black and white prints from normal inkjet printers it\u2019s best to profile your printer to ensure that the colour accuracy is as good as it can be.<\/p>\n<p>Printer profiling is a dark art which can be expensive, but there are some cheaper solutions.<\/p>\n<p>Some specialist papers come with their own profiles. You\u2019ll also need to calibrate your monitor and there are a few ways you can do this. The first is through Adobe gamma, which is free as part of Photoshop, but a more accurate method is to buy a monitor calibrator.<\/p>\n<p>These attach to the monitor and read a series of light emissions from the display.<\/p>\n<p>Models such as the Colorvision Spyder 2 Express, Pantone Huey and Gretag Macbeth can be bought for between \u00a350 and \u00a370.<\/p>\n<h2>Use the best mono printer<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re really serious about high-quality black and white prints you\u2019ll need to invest in a high-end printer using pigment-based inks.<\/p>\n<p>These produce deep rich blacks and are ideal for use with textured fine art papers. Most of these printers can print sizes up to A3. Though they cost a bit more than dye-based consumer printers, for exhibition-quality work they\u2019re worth the investment.<\/p>\n<h2>Experiment with paper<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-2148\" title=\"black and white image 5 Fuji-paper1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.phototechnique.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/black-and-white-image-5-Fuji-paper1.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"142\" height=\"88\" \/>The range of papers that you can use for digital black and white printing now rivals or exceeds those that existed for the darkroom process.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the papers add texture to create an artistic, individual feel. Others contain lower acidity and so are more archival for the longevity of your prints.<\/p>\n<p>Experiment to find one you like. Some manufacturers produce sampler packs that include a range of their products for you to try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow out top tips for better black and white
