I am experiencing the sameproblem. I am convinced that the printer is the problem. Close inspection reveals that some of the darker patches are indeed lighter...
... I had to let prints dry overnight when profiling Epson Enhanced Matte - or whatever it is/was called. ;>) Even drying it with a hair dryer I could not get...
On page 4 of the Eye-One-ReadMe.pdf document there is a reference to "re-process the ink file with Drop-Quad--Profile..." The end of the file that I get from...
I'm still looking for heuristics for selecting the best Default Ink Limit. This seems to be an important first step, but the best approach seems unclear. To...
... I'd like to ask a related question. I'm creating curves for a 2100 with Cone K7 inks. Most of the curves that Cone supplies are "pre-compiled". That is,...
Can someone tell me why Epson Luster paper would not be listed under curves. I'm using Windows, Epson R2400, have a photo black ink cartridge in the printer,...
... Milo (?), I don't know about heuristics but this is what I do. When the transitions on the initial 100% calibration print cease to be at least 0.03 density...
... I am under the impression that the Epsopn R2400 does not require the Quadtone RIP because its driver has a special "advanced black and white mode." In fact...
Roy In the K7-1440-HanPhotoRag.qidf file, no separate limits are set for the grey inks, just the default ink limit and the black boost. Why is this? Ferdinand...
Has anyone bothered to compare the 2880 .quad K7 curves that Jon Cone supplies for a number of paper & printer combinations, with curves produced by the QTR...
Ferdinand If you're asking about 'numerical' characteristics, inks in the Cone curves overlap a lot more than in the QTR generated ones. The auto-generation...
Thanks Howard The more I know, it seems the more I don't know. What I actually meant was: can you see a significant difference in prints? However my question...
Ferdinand When you use Load Curve you are pretty much on your own - you can use limits but the shape of the loaded curve will also determine the limit. With...
... I was afraid you'd say that. ... I agree. My problem is that I'm trying to create a curve for Epson VFA on a 2100, and there isn't a pre-existing curve....
Another and just as easy way to process profiles is to create a folder with an installation script -- see Profiles/InstallScripts/ -- just copy a script of the...
Before I launch into a small amount of experimentation, a question. Has anyone actually successfully built and used curves using Howards .ACV files, or...
Thanks. I learning things in leaps and bounds. Unfortunately since I'm trying to create curves for a 2100 I can't use yours. However I can use the file...
We are currently experiencing a problem installing the QTR on a group of computers in our lab. We are running Windows XP. The 'curve creation' box was selected...
The Epson printer was printing in QTR perfectly. I am in a classroom lab situation. The next job print request gave the error message: "operation could not be...
Hi Dyanna, I haven't seen that particular message before. Is this on a PC or Mac? Which version of OS and of QTR? In general you need to go to the print...
Thanks again for advice. A few more questions if I may. (i) I'm hoping to produce a 1440 curve for EpEnhMatte, since the 2880 curve seems to use too much ink...
... You just need to use lower ink limits with 2880dpi, probably in the region of 35-60% lower. I'm still not clear why you have rejected the "take existing...
Greetings, Sir. I have been browsing through this forum looking for an answer to my question. As it turns out, I want to do the same thing you asked about...
Duane, Now we're talking heuristics: 1. Default Ink Limit when density increase < 0.03. 2. Black Boost no more than 1.15 x Default Ink Limit. As it happened,...
... Perhaps because I misunderstood something. I didn't quite understand Roy's comment at the time. I thought that you had to extract the underlying curve...
I realise that my last post was a bit long, which does not encourage responses. This one is shorter. I've created a curve definition for EpEnhMatte on my K7...
