Re: [Digital BW] QTR2 on Epson 2200 w/ultrachromes

2003-08-26 by Carl Schofield

This sounds like a linux or windows issue that Daniel or others working  
with that platform may be able to help you troubleshoot.  The 2200  
profiles were made for printing at a resolution of 1440x720 Highest  
Quality and the only thing I can think of that would darken the prints  
that much would be if you had used 1440x1440 instead.
