I am making small progress thanks to Bob's last suggestion. I downloaded 2 ICC profiles from Eric Chan's website for Exhibition Fiber and Hot Press Bright, and tried to follow the directions on the PDF Tutorial for the Quadtone RIP. I cannot find the download folder "Profiles/InstallScripts" in my Mac (Leopard 10.5) Hard Drive>Applications>QuadToneRIP>Profiles>3800-UC. There is an install command file in the 3800 folder, but it appears to be specifically for the pre-installed ICC profiles that came with the software. I cannot find a script for installing custom profiles anywhere, and I am not sure I understand the directions on how to use if from my reading several times of the PDF Tutorial. In my Quadtone RIP folder under Applications are the following folders and files: (Folder)CurveDesign, (file)DiagnosticScript.command, (Folder)Eye-One, (Folder) Profiles, (file)QTR-Create-ICC, (file)QTR-Create-ICC-RGB, (file)QTR-CurveView, (file)QTR-License.rtf, (file)QTR-Linearize-Data, (file)Tutorial.PDF I am sure this is an easy process, but I cannot figure out the exact places where I need to go, and the exact steps to follow to get these 2 ICC profiles in the system. Can someone help with delineating the specific steps I need to follow to be successful?

I have many of Eric's ICC profiles for the 3800 and I use them for the AWB driver for the 3800 printer. Can I use his profile for the Quadtone RIP as well? (As I think about it, why couldn't I use his versus having a custom ICC profile made for the RIP?). If I can use his ICC for the Epson Exhibition Fiber, do you know how I can load it into the Quadtone RIP? I would like to load some other papers' ICC profiles as well. That would be great if I can do that. > > Thanks again, > > Bob > > > --- In QuadtoneRIP@yahoogroups.com, Robert Gaunt <rh.gaunt@> wrote: > > > > Hi Bob, > > > > You might try this. Eric Chan has 3800 & 3880 AWB profiles for a number of papers including Exhibition Fiber on his website. URL is http://people.csail.mit.edu/ericchan/dp/Epson3800/abwprofiles.html They are free to download. I use his profile for the 3880 and Ilford Gold Fibre Silk paper, it is working very well. Actually it works so well I had him do a custom color profile for the 3880 and GFS which is a whole lot better than the one supplied by Ilford. The cost for the custom was $20 which seems reasonable to me. > > > > Eric seems like a really nice guy, responds promptly to emails, answers questions, and has a quick turn around time on the custom profiles.
