QTR-Quadtone RIP

Hi Ed,

There aren't many photo paper w/ PK profiles.  The old UC inks
have a lot of bronzing which is pretty objectionable.

The R1800 ought to be able to remedy this with the gloss opt.
Putting GL on the prints is a matter of putting it into the profile.

Using a scanner is possible but it's not as accurate as a densitometer
or spectrophotometer.
