new curves for RIP

2005-10-10 by leepermenter

Hello again,

I've had some great success with the QTR using my 2200, EEnhM paper 
and UC inks.

But after having a number of people give thumbs down on the EEnhM 
paper's archival quality (tends to yellow quickly) I have ordered 
some Moab Kayenta, partly on the recommendation of Clayton Jones in 
his "The Great Paper Chase."

I should have checked the preloaded curves that come with the RIP, 
as I don't see one for the Moab Kayenta paper with UC ink for the 
2200.

Has anyone developed any curves for this ink/paper combo for the 
E2200? If so, would they be willing to share them with a technical 
moron, namely me, who, after looking over Harrington's instructions 
on creating new curves, might as well have been looking at the 
Rosetta Stone.

Way beyond me, but I figure if Harrington could develop standard 
curves for a lot of the UC ink and various paper combos, someone may 
have done some for UC/Moab Kayenta. Obviously several different 
curves (cool, warm, etc)that could be mixed would be ideal great.

(I admit to being perplexed as to how I would enter and access that 
information to print should someone out there be able/willing to 
provide it to me.)

The RIP has solved one of my biggest problems with the 2200 - 
metamerism - but archival quality is also a necessity for me.

Again, help!

what?
