Re: Printing glossy photos CS5 / OSX 10.6.4 / QTR 2.7.0 / QTR_RGB_Photo_Paper.icc

Thanks folks. But I have been using the suggested workflow, which is to print a BW RGB image using the canned QTR icc's - QTR_RGB_Matte_Paper.icc and QTR_RGB_Photo_Paper.icc. It is the latter that seems to causing a problem. My understanding from the documentation is that you need to print with these icc's in order to get a good match between screen and print (which is one of the real strengths of the QTR software).
