Has anyone tried to create UT7 profiles for QTR that work on glossy papers with Eboni black? Is this even possible? That is can you turn off the black eboni...
Yes, I am using QTR and IP 6.0 with Epson Pro 4000 printer. Two RIPs have different performance. ImagePrint 6: extremely neutral grayscale, easy to handle, but...
I've noticed the comments about QTR vs. Image Print. Has anyone done a comparison between the Windows version of IJC and QTR? I presently use the OSX version...
JH....I have them both and wrote the tutorial on IJC/OPM. I have ImagePrint too. QTR and IJC/OPM will yield pretty much identical output if they have the same...
JH, Oooops. The IJC curves download is in the FILES section of the Digital B&W Forum, not this forum. Sorry about that. Lou ... have ... say ... will ... ...
Hi, I've been doing BO for quite some time and I'm ready for a new challenge. I just dowloaded QTR and I am eager to try it. But, I have two questions before I...
David, Embedded profiles are ignored by QTR. It does not "do" color management. It simply looks at the raw numbers in the files and outputs the data. There...
I am trying some odd things with inks that lay down a great deal of ink. Don't ask why <G>. Two questions- Is linearization iterative? In other words, will...

When you use the Convert to Profile option, you will select either Gray Matte or Gray Photo at the destination profile. In that same dialog box, you will see...
Hi Tyler. I'm a little less proficient in QTR than I am with IJC/OPM, but I am pretty sure they work the same way in regards to linearization. RIPs like...
... Right, I can start out with something pretty wacky, and bring it into line after a coarse initial linearization. But then one would hope so, for the price....
Right now you can only do one linearization. Roy might correct me on this, but looking at my Quadprofile source code I don't think there would be anything to...
I'm using QuadTone on a Mac. For various reasons I have Photoshop on a Win2K PC instead of the Mac. I prepare the images on the PC, save as TIFF, grayscale,...
Andrew, you are right that QTR ignores ICC profiles and color management as we normally use it for color images. QTR just takes the numbers in the file and...
Lou, yes, thank you that does clear things up. Since I'm only using Elements on the Mac, which doesn't have any option to print with a profile but will honour...
Hi Tyler, As things stand Linearization is a one-shot operation. I.e. you always apply it to the same "raw" output. However the gamma and (highlight/shadow)...
Hello Group, I've been doing B&W for some time with Paul Roark's curves and MIS inks, but have recently purchased a Epson 2200 and am using Ultrachrome inks...
Hello, I want to print b/w photos with QuadToneRip on my Epson R1800. The printer model is not available in the istallation. I use Windows XP. Now my...

I have one more question: When doing BO, I typically edit my files in RGB and just before printing, I convert to GS. When using QTR, at what point do I convert...
Has anyone created a curve to give warm(ish) highlights and cool(ish) shadows? I've got some PS curves that give beautiful results, albeit with some...
I just installed QTR. My plan is to use the Epson inks (or maybe MIS black?), but otherwise have a dual purpose color/b&w printer. I have a few really basic...
... Hi Scott. Using the Warm curve in QTR and the Epson Ultrachrome inks ... I get prints that are very difficult to distinguish from the C86 and MIS UT EZW...
... A while ago I bought ImagePrint. It works very well and has a very wide range of profiles for many different papers. Chances are very good you'll find your...
... I also like Epson Velvet Fine Art. I've been using the Piezo Museum Bright (a Bradford paper) profile with great results. I think the papers are virtually...
Hi Roy, Tyler, Daniel, Just some thoughts about linearization, etc. I have generally had very good luck with both quad inksets and more recently UC with the...
Hi, I've posted an experimental cool curve for UC with PK ink on Epson Premium Semigloss in the files section. I know there's been some requests for this. Ì'm...
I've been using QuadTone for a while now. I'm running OS 10.3.9. Recently, I updated the installation to 2.2. I'd always used the 2100 connected as a Windows...
