QTR curves for the R2400

QTR curves for the R2400

2008-02-04 by tunesphotos

I'm a newcomer to BW printing and the proud owner of a new 2400. I have loaded QTR, but 
can't find the R2400 curves. Can someone tell me where they are on a mac? Excuse the idiot 
question.

Hi John,

I just changed my printer to the R2400 and upgraded to Leopard so I
had to find the curves myself, it took awhile. Are you running
Leopard? If not, the locations and functionality may be different to
this. You need to run the 'InstallR2400 command' which I found in the
R2400-UC folder in the Quad profiles folder in Printer profiles on the
hard disk. This creates the curves and providing you choose the Quad
printer not the Epson R2400 when printing you should see the curves in
your print dialogue box.
Let me know if this works out for you. 

Graham

Hello Graham and thank you.

I found the file ok and everything seems to be going well.

One further question - what is the significance of "UC" in the file  
title? There is another file with K7 in the same place - what does  
that mean? I guess that is two questions.

You can see I am a baby in this matter.

Regards, John

Hi John,

If you go on to www.quadtonerip.com and look under inks you will see  
that UC stands for UltraChrome ie Epson inks and K7 is a Piezography  
ink set sold by Inkjet mall in the states.
I have no idea how the K7 inks compare.

Regards

Graham
