Hello All,
I am hoping to get some guidance on using P900 and P908 on Windows 11 using QTR GUI.
- Using P900, I have been able to successfully create MK profiles using K, LK, LLK, M and LM?and K only (BO).
- What is weird is that I used P900 (not P908) to accomplish this, using "matte ink" in drop down menu. This seems contradictory to release notes 2.8.2. I am getting densities in 1.5 to 1.65 on matte papers, so I am confident MK ink is being used.
- I used the customary curves creation dialog in GUI to define inks, densities, and limits, followed by linearization. I am getting good results.
- Ideally, I would like to utilize V ink in the deep shadows (70 - 100%) to create an "eggplant" hue in these areas. The hue will not be visually evident in the last 90 to 100%.
- I understand V ink is not supported for Windows. But according to 2.8.2 Release Notes, I can create full 10 ink curves on a Mac. Can I use these curves on Win GUI? And they would utilize V ink?
- I am not familiar (at all) using Mac, but I was able to get a retired MacBook Pro (2011 edition) from my niece which has El Capitan (10.11) OS. I figured out how to create and linearize curves in Mac OS (in my mind, not actually done yet). I was able to print the 10 ink calibration page just fine.
So, can this be done? Create curves/profiles on a clunker Mac, but install them in Win 11 and be able to utilize V? Thank you all.
