Epson 1520, MIS QVM Workflow Curves

2003-01-30 by iyermish <ira@yermish.com>

I found myself with a FREE Epson 1520 (I think I now know why it was 
free) and thought it might be an inexpensive way to get 16x20 
digital b&W prints.  I purchased a couple of MIS QVM carts for the 
printer and have attempted to build a set of Photoshop curves using 
some of the curves on the MIS site as a starter.  The closest set 
was the 1160.  I'm close to some curves that matches printing on the 
standard color set of my 2000P, but not quite there.  I probably 
could bang my head against the curves wall for another long night 
and get it right, but I need my sleep.  By some chance is there 
someone out there that has a set of neutral and slightly warm curves 
for this combination?  I'm printing on Epson Archival Matte.

Thanks,
Ira
