Maybe I missed the original issue, but isn\u2019t this exactly what Roy\u2019s create-ICC is for? Certainly worth the price, even if the rip portion of QTR is not used at all. I would hope the print shop has a spectro\u2026\u2026\u2026.

Best regards,

John Moody

He's right. The ultrachome prints have very good longevity when doing
monochrome and with QTR you shouldn't be experiencing metamerism at
all. And, if the printer is linearized you shouldn't be seing color
content either.

If there is no gamma adjustment on their rip (hard to imagine) all you
have to do is make a LEVELS ADJUSTMENT LAYER in Photoshop as he said,
do a test, and when satisfied drag that layer into all your files. It
sits on top as as seperate layer so you easily get back to where you
started and can finese it from there. This is actually something you
could do yourself if he will do a couple of small 5"x7" tests for you.
This is really a minor problem in the larger scheme of things.

I think you will like K6 it is very beautiful.
