I created my own 3 ink profiles for the P800 and then used the curve settings from my (now dead) 3800 to create cools curves worked very well except on new legacy papers with are more neutral with the three ink combo.

I hesitate to respond because I have a 3880 rather than a P800, and because there are people on this list who know far more about this than do I. That said, I was playing around with toning effects and curves recently and I was surprised about the lack of cool curves for the P800.

If I was in your position what I would probably do is take the P800 warm curve, which uses only the three black inks with no toning additions, and add in the toning ink parameters from the 3880 cool curve. That's at least a starting point, but it's likely to need to be linearised.

Hopefully those who do know more than I will chime in and either confirm of correct or add to this suggestion.

Nobody has offered any reply to the question. I'm really stuck and can't proceed.

Is there a reason why cool tone curves are not included for the epson p800?

Thanks
