Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Curves for IGFS on 3880

2014-11-09 by Richard Smallfield

On the 3800, I have obtained good results using the Silver Rag curves for IGFS and a custom profile made with a Spyder Print, which I recommend as an affordable spectro.

Due to illness, I've lacked the time and energy to go all the way and make custom curves as well, but I intend to do so for IGFS and other papers, when circumstances allow me to spend the time doing so.

I got Amadou Diallo's book out of the library and it was worth reading. It's cheap second hand on Amazon (except for the excessive postage on second hand books there, which often means there is little price saving over new copies in my experience). I must buy a copy.

Good luck,
Richard

Many thanks, Richard. I always build colour profiles for the papers that I use. Now I understand that it is just the same with QTR. Having used ColorBurst RIP in the past, I've done linearisation etc so it's a matter of coming to grips with a variation of what I already know. It just took me a while to realise that.

I have both an i1Pro, i1Pro2 and a converted io so hardware isn't an issue.

Once I get it sorted, I will be very happy to go quiet and print.

Cheers,
Jeff
