QTR-Quadtone RIP

After reading the QTR tutorial, allow me to prevent a bit of confusion. Piezography recommends allowing the printer to do color management - not Photoshop (or Lightroom in my case). So, until reading the tutorial, I wasn't aware of why the profiles were there.

Anyway, my question remains as to what paper and ink the profile was created with or is intended to model.

Thanks,
Clark
