Digital BW, The Print

David,  I may be misunderstanding the question and answer, but the profile you are referring to is a paper profile and would be used both in printing and in softproofing in Photoshop but I don't think it can be used as a curve for QTR (though you certainly do put the curves for QTR .  Someone correct me if I'm wrong though. 

  I have many paper profiles (which ARE placed as you say), some custom, some from paper sellers, but I can't use those in QTR (the QTR profiles are in C/program files/QTR/profiles).  I, too, have wondered why there is no Hahnemuhle Photorag curve for the 2200 with OEM inks (nor one for the Epson Velvet, but I use the EEM curves and set my own blending and save that preset).   I do have HPR curves for the 1280 with the UT2 inks (but haven't yet decided whether I am going to try them or not--I don't believe so as I'm having very good results with the 2200 and OEM inks)

Diane

  Hi, I'm new here and so this is a newbie response but you do have to place the curve info for papers other than those originally covered in the QTR package.  Treat it the same as you might for PS.  On PC's in XP you need to put it in system32/spooler/driver/color ... that may not be exact but you'll see the folder if you go looking.  Get the porfile from a web site of a reseller or the company itself. You'll need one specific to your paper and (often) light conditions.  You could try either lexject.com or the company site (I do not know that).
