Has anyone created a curve for Hahnemuhle Photo Rag on the epson 2200 that they would be willing to share? In general, is there a sharing of created curves?

Have you tried the curves from the Hahnemuehle web site? ----- Original Message -----

If that fails as well, you could try using the Epson Archival/Enhanced Matte. EEM prints very similar to Photo Rag. Joost

This IS the group for QTR, right? On Feb 14, 2007, at 8:09 AM, Brian Ellis wrote: > Was he asking about QTR? [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I asked the original question. Sorry I didn't specify-- I was asking about curves for QTR. (I know about the Hahnemuhle web site- - they have profiles for standard printers & their papers, not QTR). There is a QTR curve for Hahnemuhle Photorag for the epson 4000, but not for the 2200 which is what I was asking about. Also, what is the advantage of QTR curves over duotone or tritone presets within Photoshop? (They can be tweaked as well by pulling up the curve for each color). Very interested in all responses.

Some of us receive email from more than one group. The bulk of mine come from the Yahoo b&w printing group. I didn't happen to notice that this one came from the QTR group and QTR wasn't mentioned in the body of the message. Sorry if that bothered you, hope it didn't mess up your day too badly. ----- Original Message -----

(he is a she- me) Using the duotone process (at least as I know it) in PS in combination with a printer like the 2100/2200 needs a color or "tri- tone" -low gamut inkset like UT3D plus icc-profiling (PrintFixPro is often advocated for this in the DBWTP group). The advantage of this would be to have a monitor soft-proofing capability. For me, the advantage of the QTR approach is that you have absolutely great control over the ink choice (any inkset can be supported) and curves (e.g. you can to great extent to get the ultimate Dmax or smoothness). Furhtermore, the workflow is just different and that's very much a matter of taste. I prefer to split my attention to first focus myself getting the best possible B&W in PS and only then add the toning during printing.
