Re: [QuadtoneRIP] can't install curves using quadtone rip

2006-06-16 by Roy Harrington

Hi Jene,

The basic problem is that there are no profiles for piezo inks on a 
1280.

Under CurveDesign/ExampleInks there are some "hints" of what they
might be but they are not at all ready-to-go.  Do you have a 
densitometer
and want to make your own?
