Ii an evaluating the Print-Tool but the clock on the demo version is ticking now with only a few days to go before it expires.
Black and White Print Question:
I am reading the Help file and I notice that in the example provided under Color Management, Print Tool is selected and QTR Gray Matte Paper is selected.
Is this because on this particular setup- it is been used to soft proof ?

But looking on a youtube video from I believe Jon Cone, under Color management, he has it set to No Color Management
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18940456/Screen%20Shot%202017-02-19%20at%2009.45.23.jpg
Am I correct in thinking that No Color Management is the correct choice

Ian,

You've stepped into a quagmire of how to use color management with QTR.
You got to always look at the complete workflow so pulling out one selection
can be a problem.
Either way can work and really either way can produce the same print --
IF yes IF AND ONLY IF you do everything one consistent way.
The second way works because people edit with soft proofing (Preserve Values) on.
Effectively they just do the convert to QTR-Gray-Matte-Paper during editing.
Then no more CM is needed at print time.
The first way just does it on the fly like most printing workflows.
(the difficulty is that PCs don't have that workflow option so (2) is chosen
much of the time and does work on Macs)

I thought the two images you displayed were telling.
In the first the image in Print-Tool looks pretty much how I'd expect I'd
want the image to look. But in the second image it looks too dark on the
screen. What you are seeing is it displayed as if it were GG2.2 when in
fact its really Gray-Matte. It'll lighten up in the print.
