I don't understand is the comment about "pinkish". I've never seen that in any of my prints.
After asking the person to take another serious look, the word pink has changed to Magenta.

IP may be the simple (but expensive) solution in your situation.
I suppose if I was running some sore of highly profitable business selling prints, the cost of IP would not play a factor but just selling the odd print here and there, the cost like many is to high to justify.

Why not just accept the beauty of warm black?
I think this is something I am going to have to do.

I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to this issue for me and help me understand why this is happening.

Its interesting though that 10 years ago, I gave up colour work because of the inability to see colours during the editing stage, I have lost count how many times I have wound up with a Magenta sky so I made the decision concentrate on black and white. Now OI am starting to print my work, the colour blindness has returned to plague me.

One again, thanks to all and I apologise if I seemed to have hammered this topic but now I have a much better understanding on the topic especially the workings of QTR
