Given the description I d guess the manual-feed quality issue is due to taping the paper to backing. Maybe there s slipping between the sheet and backing

You should probably ask the question at IJM. It s their product that is the problem. It would be nice to know how they avoid the problem.

Michael, I found that I was getting pizza wheel marks with EEF when I was applying the GO coat but they disappear after a while. That was using the rear feeder

I did get the 3880 hooked up to my main computer today and compared the Adobe Printer Utility to PS CC, with No Color Adjustment and Printer Manages Colors.

I don t want to start posting all the junk from the IJM thread here, but you will find that it s a lot more than a GO issue. I tried the supplied curve as well

Hi Paul. I just took a quick look. Your k boost/limit seems crazy high. Every paper and printer I have tested with these inks shows no increase in the MK

Hi Kelly, There are a couple of possibilities. I have not used Tony s mask stuff but I have heard of it. My guess is you end up using features in TIFF format

Have you cleared the channels that Tony s masks create? They can take up a lot of space, and may well confuse Print Tool. It works on my machine with them

That is correct. The Epson Driver is bypassed when printing with QTR.. What sort of problems are you having and with what printer? I can t recall if on Mac or

Well the super modes affect the whole page. But the top and bottom micro-banding is related to the weaving/interleaving as well because you have to hold on

True, while none of us understand precisely how Jon Cone creates K7 curves, several of us claim to have ways of hacking or tweaking the .quad files. But

Jon Cone places a premium on preserving shadow detail and opening the shadows, and tells you *never* to convert to the ICC, only to use it for soft-proofing.
