Hi Richard,

Thanks for your response. I have been through your site while i was going through the background research to set up my system, and later when I became a bit frustrated with the process. I was a bit reluctant to start using another software, as I had not mastered the ones that I had already put in place. Also i did use the Ike's QTR curve creation script which was suggested Clay hamon on his site, so that did speed up things a little. I did see your offer of Skype lessons, but to be honest I have spent so much already on materials and hardware, that I can not justify the expense anymore, and I know that it is going to take a good few hours of conversation before I can even start to understand the terms and the language to put this right.

From what I can gather from your comments, you suggest that I start again, using only the 3 black inks, "K ink calibration ramp with the 3 partitioned inks", and than use the photoshop curves to adjust
'reshape it with the gray curve settings'
I thought by using all the inks, i could have a much better separation of the subtle difference in the grey?

Or have I not understood what you have said.
