Hi Paul.

You can also get and use a very inexpensive calibrated step scale from
Stauffer to calibrate the scanner or an only slightly more expensive
one from Kodak. That is what I used to evaluate QTR before getting
around this summer to unpacking a densitometer I had left in storage
for a while after a move to smaller quarters. The scanner did well in
developing curves and linearising paper,ink and printer for a half
dozen different papers to use with QTR.

Kudos to you for posting a procedure for doing this with Roy's ICC
program. You have a gift for detailing workflows that work for
beginners and those who wish to be less involved with process and more
with outcomes. Your generosity in sharing this information is much
appreciated.

Regards
Duane
