Digital BW, The Print

I've modified my procedure for using QTR's Create ICC with a flatbed 
scanner.  I hope it's a little easier to follow.  See

For the example in the PDF I used a 2200 with Carbon-6.

If one has a spectro, of course, the job is easier.

The basic procedure for Create ICC is to print a 21-step test strip, 
measure the relative densities of the 21 test patches, put the 
readings in a text file, and drag and drop the text file to the 
Create ICC icon on the Desktop.

This is a very simple way to profile papers and printers with 
monotone inksets as long as the inkset is reasonably compatible with 
the printer driver's assumptions about ink densities.  This includes 
the Eboni-6 and Carbon-6 inksets.
