Yes thank you Richard Brooklyn I was not aware of this option. I agree being able to soft proof the grey profiles that Image print offers is a considerable...
My guess is that it is a lost cause. Problem is, there is no constant since you change the paper, even if you use the same brand. I use my eyes and tweak for...
Hello Eugene, ... I appreciate your remarks. You have found a nice way to sum up the experience that many have had and I like the flying metaphors. I've been...
THis also happens when using MIS spongeless cartridges in an R1800. Solution: snip 1/16" off the top of the plastic spring latch. A scissors will work just...
Hi, I'm selling my Epson 4800 photo printer. Due to the size of the printer, I would prefer to sell to persons living within a reasonable drive of my location...
Yes Steve, That was an ignorant, arrogant, and disrespectful thing I said about this man's work and, I completely and totally apologize for saying something...
Thanks for your input Tyler. It's much appreciated. I had thought about possible bleeding problems also but hoped that using smaller dots with multiple...
Just a quick update on my use of Paul's QTR Eboni-3 curves for the R1800. First let me thank Paul for giving us R1800 owners another option to play with. Up...
If I lived near you I'd have it like a shot. I would run it with the gloss ink and my present one keep on matt. But as I live in London Uk transportation...
Hi Lou: I just came across this post from about a month ago. You might also try <http://www.ultrafineonline.com>. I just received their catalog and they have...
Hi Jim, ... That's the same reaction I'm getting. We can see the difference, but most viewers can't. I even took samples to a group of fine art B&W printers...
I have made many prints on an Epson R2400 using ABW mode and now that I have a 3800, I continue to rely on ABW. With my new 3800, I profiled all my papers over...
Bottom line? Yes it does. I think it's less of a "tinkers mentality" and more the pursuit of perfection in printing a given negative or file. At least for me...
... How do you define "that much better?" What do you value in a print? What print surfaces to you require? How much Dmax is enough? How smooth is smooth? Your...
David, I can only speak from my perspective, so. For sure there are tinkers out there that are always looking for the magic bullet. They would not be looking...
Kenna actually made some 16X20 (or so) for a brief time. I heard he disliked them so much that he got as many back as he could, destroyed them all and went on...
How many companies out there make greyscale inks (meaning all color cartridges are replaced with a grey toned ink of varying strength)? I know inksupply makes...
one more that I know of- http://mediastreet.com/site/generations_gq.html extraordinarily badly redesigned website, hadn't been there in a while, but them I'm...
There's little wrong with ABW but adding from time to time a custom QTR profile to it at least gives some consistency in the tone range. You may call that...
Has anybody used the MediaStreet GQ2 inks? I asked about them over in the QTR group and a gentleman by the name of Richard Wolfson answered saying, "Tom, I'm...
... It does not manually profile well with the Epson driver. The LLK and LK interfere too much. PFP (for neutral) and QTR will be fine with it. I found just...
A little further digging and I came up with Richard Wolfson's site where he talks about the GQ2 ink. http://www.richardwolfson.com/quadblack/ Tom Husband ... ...
... Paul, I still have some worries about the dotgain control with Multihead BO and the small dots. Your observation of the pattern fits that. With BO the...
... There's a bit of a misunderstanding here I think. Qimage doesn't work correctly with the QTR grayscale profiles but there's no issue when you use a QTR RGB...
