QTR-Quadtone RIP

MIS has a "UT" ink arrangement for the 2200 made initially for Bowhaus that
is NOT UT7.  See http://www.inksupply.com/ut2200bh.cfm   It is a different
inkset and cannot be used with the Epson driver.  UT7 can be used with
either the Epson driver or QTR with either XP or Mac.

Subject: [QuadtoneRIP] UT-7 / XP / QTR ?

 

Inksupply seems to say QTR and UT-7 are a good combo for Mac, but not
for XP (see below).

Using XP, CS2 and Epson driver give me good results with UT-7, most
remarkably with glossy : virtually no gloss differential, zero
bronzing (Costco Kirkland). 

QTR is great with Epson OEM pigs but not for me with UT-7 .

My results seem to confirm that UT-7 isn't appropriate for QTR with XP
: Am I misreading Inksupply's statements(below)? 

ULTRATONE 7 (UT7) FOR EPSON 2200, 7600 & 9600 7 COLOR PRINTERS

* Roark Configuration- This is for use with Windows or Mac and the
Epson driver. There are 7 inks in the set. They will print from full
sepia to cool using Photoshop adjustment curves or from warm to
neutral using just the Epson sliders on the print driver. They will
work in the 2200, 7600, and 9600 Epson printers. The workflow for the
2200 is released, the 7600/9600 workflow is under development (as of
5/22/04). The Roark Configuration inks and cartridges all start with
UT7 as the first 3 digits of the part number. If you don't see this,
you may have the other configuration.

* Bowhaus/QTR Configuration - We have Ultratone B&W inks
specifically formulated to work with Bowhaus Inkjet Control and
PrintMaker or with the Quadtone RIP software. Both of these
applications are for Mac only. Bowhaus works with OS9 and Quadtone RIP
works with OSX. These inks can not be used with the Epson driver. The
set of 7 inks is a variable tone set that prints from full sepia to
cool and anywhere in between. Both Photo Black and Eboni black are in
the printer at the same time. The software controls which one is being
used, while the other is shut off.
