Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Creating Curves for 2400

2007-02-09 by Tom Husband

Dan,

For the ink separation page you should base your decision on the PK or MK
ink not LK or LLK.  After you determine where the black ink (PK or MK) tops
out you set the Ink Calibration at that percentage (usually around 75-85%)
and print the separation test page again.  Then you determine the density of
each ink in relation to the next darker one.  See page 13 of Tom Moore's
User Guide.

Hope that helps a bit.
