Re: [Digital BW] Inks used for QTR

2005-03-11 by Diane Fields

John, this is very helpful.  Thanks very much.  I'm going to print today on Velvet which is one of my favorite papers.  I have some WT around also so will try that.  Since I had tried BO several years ago, I knew that the UC-K inks were warm toned, but wasn't sure what other inks were involved in the profiles.  I thought I had read that only the K inks and LC and LM were used but couldn't remember where I had read it.

  Yea, I've personally found that when doing warmish mono output with QTR and UC inks, 
  papers with optical brightners like HP Rag and EEMatte don't have the beauty of papers 
  without them such as Premier Art Cold Press and H William Turner or German Etching or 
  Concorde Rag. A really interesting hue can be obtained with 80% Sepia curve and 20% Cool 
  Curve on the above mentioned media. It even looks nice on EE Matte.

  John V. sent me this breakdown to describe the way the channels are being seperated. 
  This may give you some idea. He is such a helpful guy ( and Roy Harrington is King).
