Hi Alfredo,

 

My setup is different as well so I cannot be of direct help to you.  

 

If you can't find a QTR curve for Photo Rag Baryta and you don't like the
results with the QTR curve that you are using with it, you can always use
the Epson Driver with your UC inks and download profiles from the Hahnemuhle
website.  I haven't looked in some time but I believe that they still make
icc profiles available for printer/standard ink configurations.

 

The other option is to apply and adjustment curve to your image either in
photoshop or a preset curve in lightroom to make your images print better
with the QTR curve that you have.  This can help but is restricted to how
far "off" the QTR curve is for your paper ink.

 

George

no, I haven't with any photo surface papers, and flaking with the matte fine
art papers hasn't been an issue for years now that I know to prebrush the
paper then handle and store prints carefully.
Alfredo, I'm afraid I don't know about relevant curves, my setup is
different...
