Re: QTR and Color

2005-09-23 by Kees Brandenburg

Hi Nathan,

I'm using QTR with my 1200 (MIS archival color inks) just for that:
spectral density negatives. I've set up QTR curves for Y, M, C only
and for Y/M,  Y/C, M/C combinations (by using one or two inks and one
toner). With curve combination in the QTR driver you can mix any
color. For long scale processes like salt or albumen I'm using the Y/C
mix, which has C and LC as basic inks and Y as toner ink.

You can even load process related .acv correction curves in the QTR
curve and name it process related: QTR_albumen, QTR_platinum etc.
Checking it in the QTR driver gives you the right curve and color
right away.
