I have finally achieved some good success with QTR on my 2200 usint MIS UT inks. The profile below gives me results that are very close to what I used to get with Piezotones on my 1160. before it went kaput. The only thing is, the prints are pretty warm. I need some advice from experienced users on how to increase the presence of cool toner. The thing is, I am already using very high defalut densities and can't really increase the ink limit of M (the cool toner) that much. I noticed that profies from other users have much lower ink limits than I seem to need to get a very dense black. I just pulled a print with the M density set to 100 and it was a bit cooler. Is my next step to use toner curves?
