UT7 curves

 

Hi,

My name is Jim weekes and I have loved QTR ever since the GUI for it
came out. I need all the help I can get. I have been a photographer
for 35 years. I had three different studios in Vermont and managed a
color lab for seven of those years. I also had a darkroom up until I
got a D30 and saw what Photoshop could do with a HUGE 3 megapixel
file. The chemistry had been getting to me so I have effectively quit
the darkroom for all but film developing in MF.

I am writing to see if everyone knows about the UT7 curves for the
2200. I am on the Digital B&W forum and, at one point, Stephen
Billiard, the author of the GUI, put out a list of curves for GUI and
UT7 EEM warm and cool were on it. He immediately said it was a mistake
and that he had published a list that Roy was working on. Having a
2200 set up with UT7 ink made me write to Roy and ask. He, very
kindly, sent them to me with a disclaimer that they weren't finished.
Well, to my eye, with very little tweaking, they make lovely prints. I
would suggest that anyone with the 2200/UT7 combo give them a try.

Best, Jim Weekes

Jim,
?
Do I understand that you are not using the ultrachrome inks?? So I'm understanding that you are doing no color printing with the 2200 but have made it a dedicated b/w printer.? I have considered doing this with my 1280, but have not gotten around to it.? I found QTR and was very excited that I could use my UC inks with it--and have been very pleased.? Since I print some color also--I am interested in those that are using it as 'dedicated' and those that are using hte UC inks---or anybody that has tried it both ways.
?
Diane

Diane,

I have 2 2200s one with UC and one with UT7s I have QTR on both
computers. The UT7 prints I do are on matte paper. The UC machine is
set up for glossy and I do color and B&W on it. I like the tones of
the UT7 inks a little bit better than UC on matte paper.

Best, Jim Weekes
