QTR-Quadtone RIP

I actually accidentally discovered an excellent profile for the Silver
Rag on the 4000 with the UC inks.

I had printed a shot with Hahn. Photo Rag. I switched all the settings
-- ink to Photo Black, used Premium Glossy as the paper type, but
forgot to switch curves from Photo Rag cool Selenium. I ended up with
a really beautiful B&W print -- very rich, good detail, very neutral.
The Silver Rag, at least on my printer, is very cool/blue -- not to my
liking. You might try it on the Silver Rag and see your results.
