Re: K7 Sepia/Neutral curve in epson 2200

2007-08-02 by Terry Ritz

Currently, Cone K7 inks are available for the 2200 in Neutral, Sepia
or Split Tone sets. The densities are the same for each, regardless of
toning, so a single curve for each paper used is all you need. This
means you can use (for example) the K7 curve for Innova Smooth Cotton
with any of the sets above.

There are 4 profiles in QTR for some inksets (i.e.
warm/neutral/cool/sepia), but not for K7. K7 inks are fixed in tone
and use the 7 slots for 7 densities. Other inksets have fewer
densities (e.g. 3 shades of gray) but add toners so you can create
cool, warm, etc. Two different design approaches.

Cone will be releasing Warm and Selenium inks for the 2200 down the road.

Terry.
