Thanks for your reply.
Well yes I use Barbieri LFP, and I use this target already for a long time.
I forgott to mention that I am using brown ink in place of magenta, this is
why it looks not like a cmyK printer. If I use magenta everything works
fine.
However I repeated the measurement and got the same result. I did a test
with another media which became even a higher black point.
On my opinion this should not happen although magenta is replaced with
brown. All colors ti3 file with about max. ink amount (270%) show a much
lower L value.
