The X-Rite DTP32R... Any Experts Here?

The X-Rite DTP32R... Any Experts Here?

2006-03-26 by davidkeasey

So, since you are no longer using your DTP32, do you still have that
calibration strip laying around?  From what I can see of examples, it
is simply a pattern of black on white paper... though fairly precisely
done.

I'm thinking that if I could get the exact dimensions of one of these,
I could get a set printed up.  Although they wouldn't be "exact" for
color matching purposes, I think they could provide internal
consistency in linearization of quadtone ink curves in Quadtone RIP.

Sorry I never had a calibration strip. Like you I asked on all the lists to see if I could get a 
freebee or on the cheap...no luck after a couple years.

If you know some one who has one but doesn't want to part with it maybe get the LAB 
readings from it and either print it to match or maybe some paint chips to match.

Geez it would be easier just to pay the fifty bucks for a new strip!
