Digital BW, The Print

Hi Richard

I'm using the original GQ inks in an Epson 2100.  I got them primarily to
use on glossy papers as I use the Cone inks for matte.

They seem to work very well on both matte and gloss surfaces with the
provided profiles although the descriptions of the various tones achievable
are sometimes questionable - ie "platinum" looks very little like a proper
platinum print.  I have suffered from roller marks on some glossy surfaces
though I'm sure that this is a printer, rather than an ink problem.  I'm
still experimenting with ways of dealing with it.

When making my own profiles for glossy paper I have found it difficult to
bring in the Glop at the right point to avoid mottling in the upper-mid
tones - this is really annoying!  Profiling for matte paper is no different
to doing the same with any of the MIS variable tone inksets.

I hope that this is vaguely helpful.
