QTR-UC PK prints v warm (2100)

2008-11-06 by Richard Smallfield

Hi,
I've just started printing on Moab Colorado (and various RC papers for proofing) and am getting hues very different from what I'm used to with MK ink and matt papers.

The prints on all the lustre papers are much warmer than I've had with matt papers - even a 100% cool setting is much warmer than I'd expect.

In the end I've given up and accepted a warm tone and am printing this exhibition very warm. They look very good, but I'm puzzled as to why QTR can't make my 2100 produce the same hues as it does with the MK and the matt paper curves.

The setup is: Epson 2100, QTR, OEM PK, UC inks.

thanks,
Richard
