Making a gradient - problem?

[ludem93]

Hi everyone, I'm trying to make a black to blue gradient, but the program adds a grey color in between. What am I doing wrong?

You are doing nothing wrong. This is just how gradients work. Set up a third color in between and mix it the way you like. Or change your black color to include some cyan and magenta ink.
