Paul,
Can you see the crow's feet sticking out of my mouth?
On a hunch, this time, with my current 1800 I _did_ use the curve layer and it made a huge difference. Now it looks like the print done on my previous 1800 _without_ that file.
In other words, things are behaving as they perhaps should have with my old 1800.
How do we explain that? I think I'm fairly intelligent, I swear that curve layer made very little difference previously.
'Tis a puzzlement. Anyway, my apologies everyone...
Paul

I'm using a different R1800 now and somehow my prints are lighter.Do these printers vary somewhat? ...I doubt they vary much.I noticed the Advanced Settings are:
Ink Level: -20
Gamma: 0
Dither Algorithm: OrderedI've never used those. I assume when left at their defaults, the profiles print as they have alwasy printed.
... using QTR version 2.7.0.0.
I'm not using the Gray Gamma 22-toQTR.tif. I used to use it but somehow my prints have always been fine without it.
I you used that curve in the past and do not use it now, the current prints will be lighter than the older ones.Paul,___
