HELP! My Prints are Coming Out Brown.....Why?


Steve
 

When I use the QTR to print on either Epson Premium Luster or Ilford
Smooth Pearl papers, my prints have a strong brownish hue to them.
Even with a Curve of 100% cool, they are still printing out brown.
Why is this happening? All the QTRgui settings are correct and I
converted to the Photo Gray profile.

By the way, I should add that the QTR works great on Enhanced Matte
paper (looks far superior than printing from PS and with NO magenta
tinge to them under the flourescent lights). What a relief.

I'd appreciate hearng back from someone who might be able to help me.

Thanks!
Steve

Thanks, Will. When I did the step wedges on the luster papers with
pk, I noticed that they were quite warm, but thought my eyes were
playing tricks on me.

Hi,

Am finally starting to experiment with QTR on Enhanced Matte. While the print using the
cool curve (100-0 of cool/warm) looks neutral by itself, in comparison to an Epson driver
print it is warmer.

My Epson driver prints are COLD, and I sort of like them.

I don't see a NoK curve as mentioned in the 78/79 messages. And don't know if it would
work for matte anyway. I have loaded the latest Mac version 2.1D.

Suggestions?

Thanks
Scott

I got news for you, I have the NoK curve and it doesn't work, or at
least I can't get it to work, for this application.
When I tried printing using the QTR on lustre paper using the NoK
curve, images come out very faint and grey. I used the Photo black
and and then the Matte Black ink the results were the same.
