Atkinson's profiles (was Re: WHEN will we get simple, reliable BW printing??)

2003-02-09 by Sam A. McCandless

Are there Atkinson profiles for the 2100/2200 as well as for the 7600?

I don't think I can cope with mattes larger than 16x20, so I'd rather 
not accommodate a 7600 unless its prints are a lot better than the 
13-inch printer's at its smaller sizes.
