IJC/OPM with Epson 2200

IJC/OPM with Epson 2200

2003-04-01 by Carl Schofield

I modified the default Epson 2200 "Cool" profile (provided with the OPM 
download) using IJC by adding a light magenta curve (original profile 
only used matte black, light black, and light cyan).  When this 
modified  profile is blended 50/50 with the original "Warm" profile the 
resulting prints are absolutely the best neutral, greyscale output I've 
managed to get so far from the 2200 using OEM UC inks.  Printing 16 bit 
greyscale tiffs with this blend gives me beautiful tonal gradation and 
excellent highlight/shadow detail on BC Eclipse Satine and EAM.  The 
blending feature in OPM can also be used to produce warmer or cooler 
prints simply by adjusting the blend proportion for the warm/cool 
profiles.
