Re: Printing custom targets

Thank you all for the assistance, it is most appreciated. As a recent arrival from the world of colour, the concept of using a curve for one printer on another is an alien concept. The folks at IJM told me that I could use x880 glossy curves for an old 2400.

I'm happy to take Jon at his word on that but I thought that it would be interesting to be able to print and then read a patch file to see how they look. There is no shortage of ill-informed opinion about PZ and QTR, the thought of being able to actually measure it is very appealing.

I guess that leaves me with the question of whether I can really measure this or not. Is there another way, or is it an act of faith? I ask that question in all seriousness. I'm committed to PZ and QTR. I have a brand new 3880 waiting for carts, and have been through a lot of pain with an old 2400 getting this far,
