QTR on Epson 1430 with Claria Ink

QTR on Epson 1430 with Claria Ink

2013-12-17 by patsenka

Greetings All,


I know this has been addressed here before, and after reviewing those posts I still can not get my hands around the issue. Which is how to use my new Epson 1430 with QTR and the Claria ink set. (I got this printer knowing I will use Cone Color replacement inks) I am on a Mac 10.8.5 and can get part of this to work, but will not load profiles through Terminal, so work path is still incomplete. Downloaded the additional folder from Harrington site, but that has no Terminal command. I have done some renaming but come up short. If this has been explained before on this site, it is not clear to me. I am fairly competent in things technical. Thank you, Tom

Hi Tom

Did that some time ago with a 1430 and Ebony 6 inks. Usually you have to create a printer (based on the Epson driver) with the exact name that address the ".command" script.

Then, in a folder (you can create one on the desktop) you put the .qdif or txt files WITH a copy of the "_printer_used_.command". Mine was "Install1400-MIS.command" and the files were the EB6-EpsHPn-T from Paul Roark.

If the created printer is already installed with the name that the script wants to find, it's just a double-click on the command file that install everything in QTR. You should see terminal window scrolling through installation and at the end, you close that window and if you print through QTR you should see the curves installed.

Good luck

Tom,

Recently I added some patches for Mavericks. See www.quadtonerip.com
The install scripts in this will also work fine with 10.8 and make the naming
of the scripts and printers easier.

Just drag one of the script from the Mavericks download to your curve folder.
Rename it in Finder to Install1430=1400.command -- this will call the
printer Quad1430 but connect it to the 1400 driver.

(these do use Terminal but you don't need to run Terminal yourself).
