Re: Suggestions re: adjustments to 2400 default profiles to compensate for MIS K

2006-01-13 by mambo445

These are my R2400 MIS K4 findings. To my surprise, Advanced B/W Photo
option using the standard Neutral color toning printed on Epson
premuium glossy papers (both Epson Luster and Epson Semi-Gloss paper
type) produces very neutral prints (in my judgement.) 

In the short time I have been using the printer and K4, so far this is
the best way to get a neutral B/W print for me. By tweaking the B/W
toning setting, I was also able to get fairly neutral print on
Kirkland paper.

Using QTR and K4, I have not been able to get a neutral print so far.
The K4-PK is warm and it is very difficult to neutralize PK. For some
reason, I also noticed very very fine banding with the QTR prints
printed @ 2880dpi (that I have not noticed using standard Epson
driver.) QTR is an excellent product and I have used it extensively on
the 2200. So I was surprise to see this on the R2400. More
experimentation are needed.
