Re: dark print

Hi Matthew,

I actually am not using QT yet.

When I tried it on my R2880, it printed with big problems on the
borders, but I do not know if it is due to too much ink or to problems.

What I did is notice that with the ABW driver, you can change the
settings, from darkest to normal.
This actually implements a curve with a "belly" in the dark greys that
opens them up perfectly.
Or at least it does to my still untrained eye.

Question for the other pros with QT ?

Do you create a linear profile, but then implement a curve in PS to
correct ?

Thanks, Marco.
