Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Newbie - Epson R2400 and Hahnemuhle Fine Art Pearl

2007-11-07 by Roy Harrington

For the R2400 with UC inks there are profiles for SilverRag.  This is
pretty similar
to HFA Pearl so these profiles should give good results.  The main
difference in the
paper is that HFA Pearl is a cooler tone than SilverRag so you may
find you need a
little more of the "warm" or "sepia" curves with HFA Pearl paper.

Another post mentioned using the piezo inks on the R2400 -- so far the K7 inks
are not compatible with photo paper like Pearl.  They have new ones coming
called MPS Selenium that are compatible.
