Re: eboni 6 & R2000 ink positions

2016-11-10 by richard@...

I posted about my new profiling tools last week on the QTR group, but I have not posted this here yet. If you are making your own profiles with dedicated black and white systems, and have something like an i1 Pro or SpyderPrint, you might want to check this out: QuadToneProfiler


I am working on a new version that will allow profiles to be made with up to 8 partitions in the 10 ink printers.


There are two versions. The standard one will simply speedup/automate the profile creation process without needing to enter a single thing in the QTRgui—the qidf profiles are generated for you and double clicking them on Windows will install the quad curves without the Windows 10 show curves bug.


The deluxe version has tools for reshaping the QTR-generated quad curves to make longer smooth leading and trailing edges without introducing unwanted or inconsistent ink load. It also has some advanced quad linearization tools that allow you to specify a set of target input and output points and see the quad curves change in real time.


It works with on both macOS and Windows, but with Excel only (because of the nature of the macros and user defined functions) and really cuts down on the time and paper used in generating these kinds of profiles.


Hope that helps,

Richard Boutwell
