QTR-Quadtone RIP

Hi,
I was reading on another site that Kodak Rapid Dry Lustre paper with a 
4000 exhibits much less bronzing than some papers.  Would anyone happen 
to have that QTR profile or another profile for an RC type paper that  
exhibits less than usual bronzing with UC inks?  Would be willing to 
purchase.  Have used semi-matte and its above average from a bronzing 
standpoint..  
Thanks,
SteveB

I was given several sample packs of the Kodak pro paper but never used 
them.  Then recently I needed to print some contacts and decided to use 
a few sheets printing on my 4000.  I noticed even in the contacts that 
something looked different so I printed some of the final port images 
using the gloss and lustre samples.  I'm not a glossy guy but I noticed 
a drastic improvement in both papers over any color printing on the 
4000 using the UC inks.  I will likely start using the Kodak pro lustre 
for all my color portfolio printing, but will continue using matte for 
awesome BW with QTR.  If anyone has kodak pro profiles for a 4000/UC 
inks please share them with me it looks like kodak has one profile for 
both papers.

I thought I would ask again. If anyone has this profile above I would 
be willing to purchase... No time to make myself.  This sounds 
promising for RC papers using UC inks ... 
Thanks!

I don't know if your working on a Mac or PC for "icm" profiles are cross
platform. I found this by doing a Google search on the paper and wound up at
Encad.com. Here's the link to the profiles download page.

Alan, thanks for the reply.  I have that profile for color, but I'm 
looking for a QTR made profile.  I guess I could try Ilford Smooth 
Pearl but would like a QTR profile made for this specific paper! 
Since this is the lowest bronzing paper I've heard of, I would think 
someone with a 4000 would want to try/make that profile ... 
Thanks!
