QTR-Quadtone RIP

Hi folks,

I currently own an Epson 2200 and 1280. I wonder if anyone can say 
which printer/ink combination gives the best results with QTR.

I know this question has probably been asked but searching the archives 
hasn't yielded much information for me.

Thanks in advance,

Don Bryant

Don,

I can only speak for the 1280 but I use the MIS UT2 inks and am pleased 
with the output on Epson Glossy Photo Paper. I used H'muhle Photo Matte 
before but am now more satisfied with the Glossy because of the the 
more intense blacks. The blacks on the matte now appear dusty or haze-
like in comparison. I would like to have a 2200 also but have not been 
successful on eBay yet. 

With QTR I've used my densitometer to create several paper/ink curves 
which has really opened my eyes to how different the canned profiles 
were than those catered to my setup. Hope this helps with some info for 
you to make your decision.

Your friend in Photography,

Johnny

I have a 1280 with UT2 and 2200 with ultrachrome ink.
I prefer the 1280/UT2...it's a little bit warmer (I
tend to print for warm tones). Having said that, there
really isn't much to choose between the two combos I
have, and it really is only apparent when you hold
prints side by side.
