Re: QTR and Epson 4800 issue

Sandy,
Only Mac's are used here and I always use Print Tool to print my images via QTR, with great success (no color management, only the profile via QTR). I do use a virtual PC on my Mac to create my profiles, as the QTR interface on PC is much more intuitive, and it works great with my P800.

It's my friends Epson 4800 that does not seem to communicate with the color channels using QTR. I use a straight line profile similar to yours, PK, Y and LK with all other colors in small amounts to prevent nozzle clog, but the neg always comes out bw (we have tried with two different computers, reinstalled QTR, dumped and reinstalled the Quad Printer, restarted the computer after every modification). As I mentioned before, all colors are integrated into the profile, but only the 3 blacks seem to create the image. All nozzles are firing on the printer, so it is not a physical issue. The same profile prints perfect with my P800.

Sidney
