Digital BW, The Print

For UT2 settings, see http://home1.gte.net/res09aij/UT2-Readme.htm

 

When you use one of my curves, set the driver to "No Color Adjustment."  I
do not use the sliders along with a curve.

 

Good luck with the setup.

Subject: [Digital BW] UT2/1280/Ilford Gallerie settings, please.

 

Well -- I'm a newbie at digital black and white printing and am a bit
overwhelmed and confused. I'm using an Epson 1280 printer with Paul
Roark's UT2 inkset (Photo Black). My current paper choice is Ilford
Gallerie Classic Gloss. I edit my scans (mostly from medium format
negatives) in Photoshop 7.0.

What printer driver settings and print space profile (if any) would
you recommend for neutral prints? Right now I'm using the appropriate
curve for the paper from Paul's website and my driver settings are:
Media Type: Photo Quality Ink Jet Paper, Print Quality: Best Photo
(what resolution is that?), High Speed off, Gamma 2.2, Epson Natural
Color, Mode: Vivid, Brightness: -6, Contrast: -6, Saturation 0, Cyan:
+5, Magenta: -5, Yellow: 0. 

These settings are a distillation of readings from several sources and
may or may not be correct. I'm happy with my prints thus far, but
wonder if they can be even better.

Many thanks!
