Digital BW, The Print

Hmmm.I thought I had all my ducks in a row, but I may have goofed somewhere.
I'll try it again and see how it goes. Thanks, David.

Just made my first Spyder3 Print profile today. I did a profile for Epson
Enhanced Matte paper on the Epson 2200 using standard OEM inks. I add the
extended grays to the profile. When printing a duotone version of my
grayscale file (converted to RGB after toning) I get a greenish cast to
every test print. When printing the same file using just the color profile I
created (no extended grays) the image is OK (dark, but OK colorwise). What
is going on with the extended grays version of my color profile ?

Well, you may have done something wrong with your printing of the gray
target, or somewhere else in the process, as common sense would say that the
grays are no more green when you read a lot of patches for them, then when
you read fewer. I'd start by printing the extended grays target again, with
care taken to be sure that color management is off in the driver, and see if
it looks different than the first time. If it does, then that was the
problem.
