Digital BW, The Print

Try converting the image to a QuadTone in PhotoShop and then outputting the PhotoShop 'psd' format QuadTone file using the icc profile for your ink/paper combination. Using the icm color matching in the control panel should do the trick for a basically WYSIWYG output.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Workflow for Sepia-anyone?


  I 'am fairly new to the digital world so please go easy on me with 
  the techno. language. I need to print out my images in a light sepia 
  tone. I have a PC, Photoshop 6, and an Epson 1280 w/ MIS archival 
  inks (reg. color/black, not hextone). I have read work flows from 
  Roark and just about everyone else, and cant find anyone working in 
  this way. 
  I ran into Butch H.(an instuctor of mine) at his opening of his 
  gallery show and he told me about this online group. And by the way 
  the exhibition was a huge success, his work was flawless, and I 
  couldnt belive it when he told me he used 35mm negs. WOW. Absolutley 
  unbelivable that you can get that kind of quality(tonal range) and 
  size from 35mm/digital prints. 
  Right now the paper Im using is Epson matte heavyweight, but I have 
  some Tunbridge on the way. I've tryed Duotone in photoshop -yuk, and 
  Ive tryed switching to RGB and messing with the color balance, but Im 
  not getting good results. I know part of the reason is like Butch 
  said I need a program to sync my monitior and printer up, but I just 
  havent wanted to give up the money for it since Im a student, and not 
  professional. Anyway anyone have any ideas for moderate to light 
  sepia tone in my prints? Thanks, Clary
