> Pure black looks unnatural on a screen

What does that _actually_ mean? Grey looks more 'natural'?



If I open up word and print out something with a black font color on standard paper, that printed document won't have completely black ink on a completely white paper. Things that are 100% black and 100% white don't actually exist in the real world.

Notice that this also describes pixels on a display.
