As you are planning on doing Piezo DN’s I think you should check out PiezoDN at piezodn (dot) inkjetmall (dot) com These curves/tools/documentation are built to be linearized with qtr-linearize-quad droplet directly from the darkroom prints. 3800 and 3880 printers are supported. // Regarding color ink, yes, generally you want to load up the ink as much as possible. Pictorico OHP UltraPremium helps with that. cheers, Walker > On Sep 10, 2016, at 3:16 PM, peterjbh@...

Is that pretty much the case with DNs? Should I readjust my ink loads to get more ink on the DN ( for example put more yellow, cyan, LC, M on and cut back on the K and LK) and in doing so will that improve the DNs? I printed out the QTR color chart as a DN and printed it. (I'm using Cone color pigment) > > > > Im going to use my 3880 for Piezo K7 DNs. Unfortunately I have one clogged channel (Cyan) and I've been able to use it as a matte ink printer and moving the cyan responsibilities over to the gloss channel through .quad using text edit. My question is the Piezo K7 profiles come as .quads and don't have the easy to rewrite files like those in the QTR-UC profiles. Can that be changed so that the K7 profiles are like the UC profiles and load as both .txt files and .quad files? In other words is their a method of rewriting the .quads into .txt files? > > > > Hopefully no one is banging their head on a desk. > > > > Thank you, > > Peter > > >
