R220 and Epson Ink

2008-09-19 by Alan Tochterman

Currently I am using an R1800 with the standard Ultrachrome inkset and 
Matt Chapin's curves with both Kirkland Glossy and Ilford Pearl paper 
and haveing satisfactory resluts.  The small amount of bronzing is not 
an issue when the prints are mounted in my album. 

I also have an older R220 and am not quite ready to devote it to black 
only printing, but am getting close. 

I noticed that under the GQ curve set there were four curves that did 
not have a GQ in front of them.  They were R200 cool, neutral, platnim, 
and warm.  Are these four curves for use with Epson inks?  If so, with 
which type of paper, matte or gloss or luster?  

If so, I am interested in trying them to compare the inkset with the 
bronzing issue before going full bore with MIS or Joe Cone's inkset. 

Please advise.
