"I understand that in order to profile this paper I need to first set an ink 
limit and that I'm supposed to find the lowest numbered patch that shows 
uniform coverage."

The paper profile on the Moab web site works very well for me. You might 
give it a try and see what happens.

Subject: [QuadtoneRIP] Banding, mottling on Entrada Natural



Has anyone found a cure for banding and mottling on Entrada Natural? I'm
using UT2 and a Epson 1280. Here's <http://www.stepwise.ca/QTRScan.jpg>
what my ink patterns looks like. Both  were printed at 1440. The top
image used the matte paper setting and the lower one used the photo
paper setting (which some Entrada users prefer).

I understand that in order to profile this paper I need to first set an
ink limit and that I'm supposed to find the lowest numbered patch that
shows uniform coverage. But even at 100% the Y, LM and LC patches aren't
uniformly covered. Any recommendations?

Thanks

Brian,
Are you saying that Moab has a profile for their Entrada papers that works with the QTR?

I think he probably means an icc profile for a color managed workflow,
not for QTR.
