Re: [Digital BW] UT14 Tone Shift

Is it possible the gloss optimizer is different? If you go to the curve and pull the Blue curve (yellow position) curve down, does the tone look more like it used to?

I ran a couple of tests this morning. A link to a folder with all the files is located at Printing Issues

I printed a test image on RR Polar Matte using no curve and compared it to an older test print with the same paper and ink. The two images are very close. I then tested RR Ultrapro Satin using the curve UT14_gloss_neutral.acv and compared that to an older test print of the same ink, paper and curve. It is warmer. I then printed the test image on RR Polar Matte using the curve UT14_matte_cool. This also matches my older test image. It seems as though the issue is only related to glossy prints and I cannot explain why.
