Re: New to QTR, 3880 Curves

2013-03-15 by photofarmer69

Nick, what a kind offer.  Thank you.  

I'm getting amazingly nice results using the standard PRBaryta curves, so my interest in trying a curve specifically for Canson Baryta or Platine is more out of my curiosity.  Namely, how much better it could be?  That's why I was asking if anyone had one they could toss me to compare. So, with that, I don't really know if the time and trouble for the custom curves your offering is worth it???  That sounds silly, but maybe you could tell me.

(This btw is all leading me to the inevitable conclusion of getting a set of k7 inks for this printer...sigh.)
