Digital BW, The Print

Resolution - 1440 X 720. As a test bed I am using an old 860, modified the
canned curve for the 1160 "1160-fs" and went from there.

  Roger,

  At what resolution did you print. Carl Schofield confirmed to me, that
  "1440 x 720Highest Quality" is the max for QT.

  Above 1440x720HQ the ink floods the page.

  Regards,

  David
