Re: [Digital BW] Advanced B&W printing and ICC profiles

2005-11-26 by scott_now_coming

Anytime I've used an ICC profile in QImage and printed with ABW on 
the 4800 with a grayscale file, the prints were always WAY off.

Turning off the profile in QImage produced excellent results.

It would be nice though, if those QTR profiles could be used in QI.
