The MIS Eboni black produces a somewhat cooler (to my eyes, more neutral) black than the Epson blacks. I don't do much color but when I do I remove the Eboni, replace it with Epson PK or MK, and run a couple cleaning cycles. I use the standard QTR EEM curve with EEM paper and the Eboni black, I don't think you need any special curve just because you're using the Eboni black. There isn't a QTR curve for HPR with the 2200, I think people have reported good results using the EEM curve with HPR but I don't use HPR so I'm not sure.

Subject: [Digital BW] newbie
HI everyone!
I am new to this site and quad.My system is as
follows: artisan/ PSCS/XPpro/2200/.I have been printing BW for 2
years using IP(6.0 now)with very good results but I am blown away
with quadtone!I just downloaded quadtone gui and it is working well
but I have a few questions to answer before I can push it further.
1-What is the very latest version for PC? I am running2.1.13.
2-I run epson UC inks but I believe I read that you can mix
epson UC inks with Mis ebony black. Is this possible?
3-Are there sample icc profiles and curves available
for:1.premier premium matte with ebony K 2.eps enh matte with
ebonyK 3.Han phot rag with ebony K
ON XP with 2.1.13 or any later version?
I don't do my own profiles. Could Roy or any other
expert do the profiles for me ,for a fee of course? Thanks!
