Need for Consistent Tones

Need for Consistent Tones

2004-04-29 by Hope Frazier

I'm working with a dozen photographs in Photoshop 7. They will be 
published in a book. Currently there is a range of B&W tones - from 
brownish to greenish when I print them on my 2200. I would love to know 
how to use Curves or some other PS tool or printer setting to get all 
the photographs to be the same subtle-cool sepia tone. Anyone with this 
experience?
Hope

try using the quadtone setting under image/mode/grayscale/duotone.
There is also a website that discussed quadtone etc. It is
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/duotone.shtml

Hope this helps.

Print them using the black ink only setting and you'll get rid of the
casts and get a lovely shade of sepia.

In Photoshop go to Print with Preview and select Show More Options if it
isn't selected
Radio button Document
Profile should be Same as Source

Click Print
Click Properties
Pick your paper and the dpi you wish to use (1440 looks great)
Pick your orientation
Check high speed
Check black ink only (ignore the warning that comes up telling you how
awful it will look)
Click OK

You're off and running.

If you are using a Mac take a look at QTR.  The download includes a sepia
curve (selected within the QTR driver settings) developed by Carl Schofield.

Steve
