K7 icc profiling and printing

2007-01-19 by Andrew Unger

OK, now I understand that you select "no color management" when 
printing the target for profiling and that after you have the profile 
you convert to that profile, save as a tiff and then print with QTR.  
Although you are printing with an icc profile you still must choose at 
least one existing curve.  While there is an icc profile there is no 
corresponding curve within QTR because the Piezo curves weren't created 
by QTR and are not editable or relinearizable by QTR.  In my case I was 
profiling Premier Premium Matte paper for the 4000 K7 inkset and used 
the Kayenta curve to base the new profile on.  After getting the 
message to choose at least one curve I gave a 1% Kayenta curve and 
a "none" in the other curve box.  The resulting print looked like what 
I expected.  Is this the right way to print with an icc profile in QTR?
