sepia tone

2005-05-14 by Francis Ford

I have been using the Quadtone RIP in my Epson 7600
with good results.Just today all my prints have been
coming out sepia. I am using UC-EEnhatte-cool on both
curves 50-50 I did about a million nozzle checks to no
avail. I tried to make prints with both my Imac G3 and
my G4 with the same results. Would anyone have any
ideas? Francis Ford
