Digital BW, The Print

Hi Gang:

Having finally gotten QTR basically functioning well with my 2200
(thanks to Roy and Stephen), I would now like to play with generating
my own curves.  I tried looking up descriptions of this process on
both of the above gentlemen's websites, but could not locate such a
description.  I may well have overlooked it.

Would some kind soul point me in the right direction?

Am I also correct in assuming that if I decided to utilize a third
party inkset (MIS UC perhaps), then I would need such custom curves to
achieve results tweaked to my image preferences.

Thanks much in advance for any references.......... Jack Winberg
