QTR-Quadtone RIP

Hi John,

I'm trying to get a 3000 running good, too. Any old profile files for the
3000 might help alot. I haven't found any, though there must be some out
there.

Subject: [QuadtoneRIP] Why Epson 3000 not supported by QTR


Well, I finally figured out why the 3000 isn't supported by QTR.

I was able to make it work by taking the supplied documents for the 1160 and
substituting
3000 for 1160 as needed. QTR works, and I was able to get a nice smooth
linearized
greyscale. But unfortunately the dithering pattern is all too obvious...when
compared with
prints from an 1160 running with the old Cone plugin, highlights have lost
detail and
midtones show obvious and unpleasant dithering. (The same 3000 running under
the Cone
plugin does not have this problem--prints are equal to those made by the
1160).

Clearly a problem with the Epson driver. If anyone has any ideas I'd be glad
to hear them.
Although I am not in a bad position, being able to make good prints with the
plugin, I enjoy
the flexibility and control of QTR.
