Yes I did remove the 51 and replaced them with the 21. When I printed out the step wedge with the new linearizion numbers, the wedge, instead of a nice gradation, was now mostly black from about 100% to 70%, then the gradation was slight for the remainder. At that point I thought I had done something wrong and replaced the 21 with the original 51. To surmise: I have printed out a step wedge with a nice gradation, took measurements(Spyder3Print), placed the numbers in the linearizion box(replacing 51 with 21) and printed out a wedge with a mostly dark gradations. What did I do wrong?

I printed out the calibration page. Determined ink limit,etc. Selected an exisiting curve to modify to determine tone,etc. In curve creation, I modified density and limits and printed out 21 step wedge after step wedge to get a nice, evenly graduated step wedge. After many iterations,I thought I had made a good neutral curve. I pulled up an image in PS and made sure it was a greyscale tiff, gamma 2.2 image. I then opened it in QTR, selected my curve and hit print. The tone was neutral but the print was light.
