I just tried using both QuadTone RIP 2.0 and Gimp 4.2.5 for the first time with my Epson 2100 inkset. When I used Quadtone RIP my image came out extremely dark. So I then tested it with Gimp 4.2.5 (which I had to download to install QuadTone) and the image came out very very light in tone vs what I see in Photoshop. What am I doing wrong? My working space for the image in PS is Dot Gain 15. I am printing to Somerset Enhanced Velvet paper. I am using the Epson matt black ink. My print space is set to SP 2100 Watercolor - RW_MK. In Gimp (and Quadtone) Printer Features the Basic Settings are set at Matt Paper (there is no watercolor in 4.2.5), 1440x1440 DPI Highest Quality, Photograph, Adaptive Hybrid, 7 Color Photo. The Quadtone Settings are Quadtone RIP and I am using a curve which is simply a duplicated and renamed (printer to correspond with the printer list, profile name to 2100- neutral) example curve provided by Roy (2200-neutral).
