Re: [Digital BW] qtr curve design w/epson ultrachromes

At least if you use a Mac there are 7600-UC curves in the download (look
under example inks).  You can design and linearize your curves in the same
way - just remember that LC and LM are used to cool the LK for a cool curve.
Altering the mix of LC or LM or introducing Y gets you to the selenium and
sepia.
