Can someone point me in the direction of using the Spyder 3 Print spectrophotometer to profile black & white test targets. I am using an Epson R188 with 3 channel MK Eboni black inks and want to establish curves for 2 select papers that I use (Harmon Matt Baryta, and Epson Velvet). I cannot figure out how to use the spectrophotometer manually. Thanks Paul p_bien@yahoo.com

Paul, Look under Tools on the top. You'll need your meter attached. Calibrate it and then under that selection is measure and that will open up the spot measure options.

Thanks Eric. Can you recommend a target file for curve generation, or do you know if QTR has one already set up for curve generation. I need to go through the QTR documentation for the advanced procedures. --- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com, "E Neilsen" <e.neilsen2@...> wrote: > > Paul, Look under Tools on the top.

I'd use the 100 square target in QTR if you're have trouble or just the 21 step to start. Both are in QTR but look in the Eye One folder to find them. Eric Neilsen Photo 4101 Commerce Street, Suite 9 Dallas, TX 75226 214 827-8301 http://ericneilsenphotography.com SKype ejprinter _____
