I think it behaves like that when you try to print anything other than a TIFF...QTR won't work with other formats so you have to save PSD or GIF or whaever as ...
I haven't yet tried creating any curves for papers I have--mainly because I'm sampling and trying to make a decision on what paper(s) I will use with QTR....
Someone suggested starting with the HPR cool/warm curves for 2200 and increase the ink limit. I'm printing a series of step wedges on each paper from 100% warm...
Diane: I think I finally got it...boy am I slow..I'll let you know how I'm
doing...by the way what does LOL mean?...best, Ann ... From: Diane Fields Date:...
Shorthand for 'laughing out loud', but basically is a way to add some 'body language' (IMO) to posts that could be read in many ways. For those of us that...
As I sit here and print step wedges on a variety of papers with my 2200/QTR, I've been thinking about the numerous posts on the Digital B/W list (where most...
Could anyone tell me just what this curve is---is it a blend of Sepia and cool for EEnhMatte? I saw a post not long ago about the use of this curve--with...
Diane, 1. Printing a "roundabout" is not a British practice but a technique used in printing color photos to assess color balance. I don't think anybody does...
1. Ah--thanks. I never had a darkroom though I would have loved to in my film days--all I could think of with a 'roundabout'was the auto 'roundabouts'--which...
Do you print greyscale or RGB? QTR seems to do it's thing the same regardless of what mode you are in, so it would be better to use the smaller file. And,...
I'll let someone else explain the technical aspects of a curve and an ICC profile, but for one thing--you cannot use a curve in place of a profile. An ICC...
I'm a new member of the QTR community and fairly new to digital b & w photography. I wanted to know what advantages are offered by this system versus others...
Steve, the BIG advantage of using QTR over PS is the lack of metamerism in monotones. I've printed b/w or monotones for years with first a 1280 and then my...
I made a print in QTR..print looked good..a little warm..then I re-read the instructions and saw I was supposed to first change the image in photoshop to grey...
Just sent this to digitalb/w list too. Okay, Ann. Hope this will help. First of all---the ICC profiles should be (for windows) in the windows folder (should...
Thanks, Diane, I'm really struggling with the understanding of this QTR stuff and you've been very helpful by answering many of my questions on this forum. I'm...
Hi Steve and Diane I’ve been following this carefully, because I’ve been using QTR for my black and whites with reasonable success for the last couple of...
The "CoolSe" curve uses slightly more light magenta than light cyan, whereas a "Cool" curve uses equal amounts of light magenta and light cyan to cool the warm...
Steve, I'm a newbie too at QTR but maybe because I've read the other list for several years (and have been printing b/w for a good while, first with the 1280...
Thank you Carl. I just happened to try that with the CoolSe--without understanding what the curve was. Found a blend I liked and made it a preset. Diane ... ...
Bernie, that's about it. I don't think you can assign a grayscale profile until you 'convert' to grayscale, but I could be wrong. Nonetheless, you do need to...
Thanks, Diane, I'm going to have to do some experimenting based on what you've described here. I'm sure I'll be back with more questions for you. Could you...
I finally figured out how to get it to work...especially with your help Diane...but my prints are still too warm pc epson 2200 epson inks epson luster paper....
Steve, the following is the text from Lou Dina's post: Here is a step by step for Windows XP Users. First, download Roy's Lab profiles and unzip them to your...
... did..but ... Try the "NoK" profile with luster paper. It doesn't use any black ink, but it does produce a neutral/cool print using only the neutralized...
Epson's photo black is a very warm almost brown black and used with QTR will print exactly that way. The photo black (pk) curves supplied with QTR don't use...
Please change the message subjects when you change topics. "the advantages of QTR" has gone down the tubes and will soon start being deleted, unless of course...
I know there are RGB ICC profiles for QTR gray-matte and gray-photo. I also know these are to be used for printing from Qimage. I have and have used Qimage...
