Re: HELP! My Prints are Coming Out Brown.....Why?

I got news for you, I have the NoK curve and it doesn't work, or at 
least I can't get it to work, for this application.
When I tried printing using the QTR on lustre paper using the NoK 
curve, images come out very faint and grey. I used the Photo black 
and and then the Matte Black ink the results were the same.
