Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Re: New to Linearize Piezo K7 inks with Eye One 2 X-Rite software

I finally got around to getting the reference chart updated and figuring out what I was doing wrong. The problem I was having earlier in the week was related to using the wrong module to read the test chart—I updated my version of i1 Profiler and it works just fine for reading the step wedges.

I tested it with prints made from the original tiffs that are included with the QTR download and they works just fine, and I did not need to use the updated target images that Keith Cooper recommends.

The output data works fine with the QTR-Linearize-Data script with the 21x4-random and 51-step gray as well.

Here is a link to the blog post with the dropbox link for the reference charts. I will update and test the other reference charts when I get a chance. I tend to use the either the 21x4-random or the 21-step-gray that I average with 6 readings so I created spreadsheets that reference the measurement data and then copy those to a separate .txt file that i plug into qtr-linearize-data. All that will be explained in more detail in the refined profile creation workflows I am writing up.
