QTR GUI on Epson 7600 UC with Premium Luster Paper

QTR GUI on Epson 7600 UC with Premium Luster Paper

2005-02-17 by timothygerald

Hi all,

I am just a simple B&W fans, and I need a little help from you guys 
to set up configuration on the GUI to fit with Epson Premium Luster 
paper.
(Such as curves, Blend percentage, ink limit, gamma adjustment, etc)
Instead of playing around and wasting paper&ink, I prefer to follow 
your advice and start from there.

rgds,

Tim

Tim, there is another thread a few days back discussing the tutorial
document written by Tom Moore, it provides the current state of how to
go about this task. Its based on the original documentation provided
with the mac version, with input from Roy Harrington. Reading that
will give you the information that you will need to accomplish this task:

Re: QTR GUI on Epson 7600 UC with Premium Luster Paper

Thanks for the tutorial info, I'll take time to read it.

Actually what I wish was, if there is somebody who has been printing 
with epson 7600 UC + Premium Luster Paper to give me his/her setting 
on the GUI to get the right B&W print.
I haven't use other paper than Premium Luster (at least for the last 
2 years), hence I was looking for kind of guidance.

I use PC with Window XP Pro.

rgds,

Tim

Tim,

I find the profiles for the Ilford Smooth (don't have
the profile names here at work sorry) paper works
quite nicely on Premium Luster on the 2200 with Ultra
Chrome. Prints match my profiled monitor without any
other tweeking. (convert to GrayMatte space before
save to tif) Great shadow detail. CoolSE 45 Warm 55 is
a nice neutral, but I prefer the warm curve alone for
most of my work.

Good luck!

Tim,

I am loosing my mind. Read an advert on a paper and I
think I am using it already! sheesh...

What I really am using with Premium Luster is the
UCpk-EPremSemiGloss-* family.

Sorry about that!

Guy,
 
It's okay, at least I got your guidance to start with QTR GUI.
Today, I have printed couple of image, one was no contrast with a little bit brownie, and the other quite neutral but cold. I'll try again tomorrow.
 
Thanks again for helping.
 
rgds,
 
Tim
