UT7 or UT-3D?

2006-06-06 by Richard Smallfield

Hello,
I'm somewhat technically challenged due to illness (ME/CFS) and wondered which inkset would be the easiest to master - the UT7 or 3D - I use a 2100.

I do get nice prints that I've exhibited ( http://www.matakanapictures.com/Richard_SmallField.html ), with UC inks and QTR (which I confess not to have mastered) - but am considering moving to a BW inkset for various reasons. At present I am getting good results only by producing too many proofs, which is a situation I want to move away from by getting a better handle on colour management.

If it is relevant, I've not yet been able to save for a Printfix Pro and have only just made my first icc profile with my scanner, following Paul Roark's directions ... so I have a lot to learn.

Normally I print marginally warm-neutral - QTR Cool 55%/Warm 45%.

thanks,
Richard
