[Digital BW] Re: 2400 vs. 4800

2005-11-09 by wwodets

Steve hi,

On the loading--I've gone to the front loading with a "custom made" 
guide on the back of the printer that directs the paper down.  Seems 
to work, but I'll try your suggestion on the back loading.  It was 
very frustrating.

On the other issue, I am not using QTR curves, only the ICC 
profiles.  I have been using the ABW with light setting.  The 
profiles for the 4800 are quite subtle compared to those for the 2400-
-better linearization in the printer I guess.

Why did you do the QTR curves?  Are you using Eboni instead of K3?  
What advantage do you see in printing through QTR on this printer?

Best,
Walt
