Media street GQ ink, epson 2100, Ilford smooth pearl paper

Media street GQ ink, epson 2100, Ilford smooth pearl paper

2005-12-26 by jwb224retaw

Hi,

I am new to the forum and need help. I am using an Epson 2100 printer 
with Media Street Generations Quad inks from a niagara supply and 
either Ilford smooth pearl or Monochrome Arles 318g Matt paper (a 
generic Hahnem�hle). Can somebody please tell me a simple way to set up 
the curves etc to achieve good results. I have tried various set ups  
Quad 2100 GQ and Quad 2100-UT7 but the results are poor ( GQ = foggy as 
if there is an almost white film covering the print; UT7 too dark). 
Please help,

J�rgen

I have reread the User Guide and am as helpless as before. Can I print 
out  a test picture or chart using my inks and papers and somebody 
would create the correct set of curves. What would it cost per paper 
and is anbody willing to do it? I would want it for black and white 
inks as well as for colour.

Thanks
