Re: [QuadtoneRIP] How to lay down more ink

2006-08-12 by Maris V. Lidaka Sr.

Though not new to it, I'm only now getting more familiar with it, but have 
you tried increasing the "Ink Limit Adjustment (Shadows) setting at the 
bottem left corner of QTRGui?  That slider will increase (+ settings) or 
decrease (- settings) the ink density laid down.  See the Help files on "Ink 
Limit".
