Re: Profiling Epson R2400 using UC K3 inkset

2006-08-09 by Kevin Bradford

Thanks for your reply John.  I'll redo my curve using 100% LLK to black,
then 100%LK to black and try again.   My first attempt at printing the
21 step tablet with the "neutral" curve I was trying to create had very
cool light tones and very warm dark tones.    I was also using the
Ilford neutral cool profile as a template and left in the linerization
information when I created that profile.  Perhaps I should wipe the
slate clean and create the curve with no linerization.

BTW, I am trying to profile Hahnemuhle Fine Art Pearl.  When I have the
process down I'll try profiling Museo Silver Rag.  I too  will share the
results whey they are done.
