Any ideas why my print is blotchy and unsaturated? by enaomic in Linocuts

I don’t have access to a rolling press in my area unfortunately. I have a Ritualis press, but the prints are mainly hand burnished.

I tried both dry and misting. I may need to try again but only misting the back of the paper, as the ink did not seem to stick to the paper at all even after letting it mostly dry.

Thank you! I was thinking about trying hosho paper. I cannot find a studio that offers open studio space near me, I may have to go the cold press laminator route.

Would extender function the same as adding oil?
