Bernie, that's about it. I don't think you can assign a grayscale profile until you 'convert' to grayscale, but I could be wrong. Nonetheless, you do need to 'convert' to first the LAB--because you

Thank you Carl. I just happened to try that with the CoolSe--without understanding what the curve was. Found a blend I liked and made it a preset. Diane

Steve, I'm a newbie too at QTR but maybe because I've read the other list for several years (and have been printing b/w for a good while, first with the 1280 and with the 2200) and am pretty familiar

The "CoolSe" curve uses slightly more light magenta than light cyan, whereas a "Cool" curve uses equal amounts of light magenta and light cyan to cool the warm light black ink. The "CoolSe" is an

Hi Steve and Diane I’ve been following this carefully, because I’ve been using QTR for my black and whites with reasonable success for the last couple of weeks (with Windows) and didn’t know

Thanks, Diane, I'm really struggling with the understanding of this QTR stuff and you've been very helpful by answering many of my questions on this forum. I'm familar of the metamerism problem

Just sent this to digitalb/w list too. Okay, Ann. Hope this will help. First of all---the ICC profiles should be (for windows) in the windows folder (should be available in your dropdown if it and

I made a print in QTR..print looked good..a little warm..then I re-read the instructions and saw I was supposed to first change the image in photoshop to grey scale from RGB. I did that and the print

Steve, the BIG advantage of using QTR over PS is the lack of metamerism in monotones. I've printed b/w or monotones for years with first a 1280 and then my 2200. I print from either PS or Qimage. I

I'm a new member of the QTR community and fairly new to digital b & w photography. I wanted to know what advantages are offered by this system versus others including Photoshop. I use an Epson 2200

I'll let someone else explain the technical aspects of a curve and an ICC profile, but for one thing--you cannot use a curve in place of a profile. An ICC profile is, for instance, the color space of

Do you print greyscale or RGB? QTR seems to do it's thing the same regardless of what mode you are in, so it would be better to use the smaller file. And, yes, I hate to admit it, but I'm one of

1. Ah--thanks. I never had a darkroom though I would have loved to in my film days--all I could think of with a 'roundabout'was the auto 'roundabouts'--which I first encountered years ago in Canada

Diane, 1. Printing a "roundabout" is not a British practice but a technique used in printing color photos to assess color balance. I don't think anybody does that anymore with all the new

Could anyone tell me just what this curve is---is it a blend of Sepia and cool for EEnhMatte? I saw a post not long ago about the use of this curve--with perhaps a warm curve??? Can't remember the

As I sit here and print step wedges on a variety of papers with my 2200/QTR, I've been thinking about the numerous posts on the Digital B/W list (where most people still seem to end up with questions

Shorthand for 'laughing out loud', but basically is a way to add some 'body language' (IMO) to posts that could be read in many ways. For those of us that have been around on the net for years and

Diane: I think I finally got it...boy am I slow..I'll let you know how I'm doing...by the way what does LOL mean?...best, Ann

Someone suggested starting with the HPR cool/warm curves for 2200 and increase the ink limit. I'm printing a series of step wedges on each paper from 100% warm to 100% cool--I'll try using the HPR

I haven't yet tried creating any curves for papers I have--mainly because I'm sampling and trying to make a decision on what paper(s) I will use with QTR. I've done this before with papers for color
