Do you mean that you printed a full colour image? QTR only supports BW
images. Or do you mean that you printed a grayscale image saved as RGB? 
Which profile and what paper did you use?

I'd expect printing with the glossy K would give you less than ideal 
results unless you have a profile specifically designed for it. It's 
different in tone from the matte K, and has much weaker DMAX on matte 
papers.

If you send me some details I'll see if I can make a profile for your 
ink and paper comination.
