Re: [Digital BW] Ultrachrome/QTR Question

2006-11-29 by Tom Baker

One would expect less 'color' in a QTR print than from the Epson driver.  Remember, however, that the user controls all of the inks, so one could put more color than the Epson driver in a print.

          Hi,
is it true to say that an ultrachrome qtr print will have less of a colour shift with uv exposure than a print done with the epson driver, due to less colour ink being used?

The portraits poster I talked of that went greenish after being in a cafe for a year or so was printed with the Epson driver rather than qtr because there were a couple of colour images in amongst the BW ones.

thanks,
Rich
