Re: Warm Tone Paper

2005-07-07 by Antonis

Barry,

there is antique and then there is really antique....   Hahnemuhle makes
some nice papers that are warm-ish (such as German Etching) and that may
be all you need. But if you need to go beyond that, and you are using OEM
inks in the 4000, you can always tone the paper itself. Don't know how
well a yellow/magenta tint will last, but it will give you all the control
you need.
For tinting the actual image, what you need is the right profile for QTR or OPM.
No need to do an rgb workflow with the Epson driver - unless that
offers a look you like. You start with a grayscale file and tint through
the printing profile.
