Digital BW, The Print

with the ABW driver you don't have color managed control of hue. You will to play with the hue controls in the driver itself, hit and miss, to find a hue, neutral or otherwise, you like.
By "Quadtone B&W neatral" profile are you refering to the profiler that comes with Quadtone RIP?

Anyway, no profile will control your color, or create neutral. Tiy will have to find settings for that. If you like, a profiler, Quadtone RIPs, Datacolor's, any other profile maker will essentially linearize the luminance scale, not effect color, of output using ABW.

Actually, with new PS versions, can you print with a profile from grayscale?? It may need to be RGB.

How does one go about profiling 3rd party inks to make ABW print totally neutral.  Also how do you create a Quadtone B&W neutral profile for a 3rd party inkset.   cheers and thanks
