I recently purchased a box of HPR that I didn't realize was the Satin MK version - until after I opened it. So now I'm trying to print with it and asking for some help. (Mac OS X, 10.4.11) I downloaded the icc profile from the Hahnemule site and placed it in the ColorSync folder. I understand this to be an RGB profile. Correct? I changed my B&W image to Mode/RGB in PS/CS3 then printed (R2400, K3 ink) with various settings. The best result, though not very good, was gotten with these settings in the print dialogue: Color handling: PS manages color Printer profile: HFA2400PhotoRagSatinMK Rendering: Perceptual, BPC And in the second print page: no color mgmt. I've gone through quite a bit of ink and paper getting this far, and it's not far enough. For instance, aside from problems with tonal reproduction, there appears to be a gloss differential. Has anyone optimized the printing workflow for this paper. Should I be using PK instead of MK (there are profiles for both)? Your advice appreciated. Harry
