Re: QTR Support for Epson 1430 ?

2013-04-28 by kenleegallery

I am trying to make prints with the Eboni 6 inks, and I am confused about the Photoshop settings. Under Color Management, we can select an ICC printer profile - and then under Print Settings we can choose a QTR curve. Do we use both ?

For paper, I have some Epson Hot Press Natural and some Premier Fine Art Smooth 270. 

There is a printer profile called "QTR_1400_Eb6-EpsHP-cc22."

There is a QTR curve called "MK-Epson-PA-Scrapbook-BO". (Hot Press Natural was previously called Scrapbook, no ?)

Is this a correct approach ? 

Many thanks !
