Hi DJ,

The short answer is basically that you have to design curves for what you want.

But I'm not too sure what you want to do with the color inks in a 1200.  QTR
is for B&W (monochrome) printing so with standard G6 inks it sounds like
just black-only printing.  What did you do with the 7500 with UltraChrome?
Do you mean a 7600?
