QTR-Quadtone RIP

You may want to be a bit more careful with your manipulations and move
into gray scale - your adjustments should be as non destructive as
possible- lots of good ways to do this - check out Amadou Diallo's book
Digital Black and White - leave your files in RGB,- moving to grayscale
by desaturating will be your best bet for preserving image quality -
last place for manipulation would be some tweaking of the curve blends
in QTR - However a properly edited image with the K6 curves provided and
no further adjustment have been printing well on my 1280 in a school lab
for the past two years  - This is a wonderful RIP - it cannot make up
for heavy handed or sloppy image manipulaton
