Re: Help Changing Ink Limits for Profile

2007-01-16 by John Hollenberg

Scott,

Very helpful.  I didn't know I could look at the 2880 curves in that
way.  I do have the Bowhaus RIP and may give that a try, although that
could be more complicated. Wonder how they decided on those strange
curves!  

So far, cutting the black boost to 85 has been helpful, but not quite
enough.  I am currently trying 75.  It seems that the overlap of
multiple inks may be to control the a* and b* readings (which I
noticed were modestly different in the shape of the curve from L*
0-100 compared to the a* and b* readings for the profile built by
Cone.  Looks like I can solve the dmax problem, but not necessarily
the subtle tonings, with QTR.

Thanks.
