Printing with Pauls's curves

2010-04-25 by Andre Vallejo da Silva

Hi all.
I'm currently printing with a 1400 loaded with UT-14 inks.  
Experimenting I found that when printing in  luster surfaces like the  
Barytas papers (Ilford and Canson) QTR gives me the best result, while  
on mate papers like Canos Infinity Rag, Paul's curves gives me better  
contrast and detail.
So said, I also found that using QTR-RGB-Matte-Paper as printer  
profile in PS printing dialog gives me a warmer output, while using  
Adobe RGB as printer profile gives a colder tone.
Question is, is there a estabilished collection of printer profiles  
wich will give previsible results with Paul`s curves?
Best, André
