RE: [Digital BW] Re: Hands-on impressions K3/ABW versus K7/QTR

I hope this does not sound to silly, but make absolutely certain the correct
ink is in each slot.  Call support to be sure.
K7 _is_ smooth, so there must be some issue with your setup or workflow.

If the K7 is setup and working correctly, then what you are describing is a
monitor to print matching problem.  You will find lots of information on how
to address that in past messages.

Best regards,
John Moody

Subject: [Digital BW] Re: Hands-on impressions K3/ABW versus K7/QTR

From my limited experience with K7 (four months), I find the hghlights too
light. K7 has
problems with high contrast images that have a quick transition from shadow
to highlight.
Even though the transtiions are quick they still should be smooth. K3 has no
problem with
this but K7 does. I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

I would like to see more ink thrown down on the highlights and midtones but
Cone profiles
are hotwired into QTR so I have no idea how to alter them. Does anyone know
how to alter
the Cone profiles or are we stuck with creating our own? I threw this
question out at the
Piezography list but no one could respond. Ditto at the QTR list. Maybe the
luminarites here
could shed some light.

Thanks in advance.
