I used to think K100 could let me have the solid black. But after I worked with the print shop a couple time, I found that every print shop gave me different “solid black”. Some are even a bit brown.
I talked to the staff in the print shop and he told me if I wanted to get the real real black 100%K is not enough. Instead, I should mix other colors with black ink to produce the “rich black”. The setting would be C:50% / M:40% / Y:40% / K:100%. And he’s right. The artwork came out good!
