Thank you very much !!
Suggest you post this question on an appropriate forum. How is quad-toneRip specifically related to large format photography?
Phil, quad-toneRip is as relevant to LF as any darkroom technique.
Thanks for the notice. I pulled it down and printed a sample image using the 2200. In incandescent light it looks great. I hope it looks as good in daylight, which is where the Epson inks fall down for black and white in my opinion. The tones in the highlights are very smooth and the shadow detail is also correct. Overall I am impressed - if the color casts stay away.
I had a problem with the install - probably because of the fact that I am running Windows 2000 on my print server. I had to modify the quadtoneprint.bat file to not use the "My Documents" directory. Once I created a different directory and put the full path in this file everthing was good.
I looked at the print this morning in sunlight and it looks the same as before - no noticable color cast. I will be playing with this more - especially as I move my darkroom.
Quong, if you want to turn this into a forum for discussion of software, inks, mousespads or other digi-arcana that is your right, but I asked the question as to whether it is "specifically related" to large format. I believe the comment fails that test. Perhaps you want to turn the forum into a learning tool for discussion of new digital processes? Again, the comment would fail that test as well since it explains nothing about what it is or does.
Phil, This forum and home page are defined as "Non-commercial community of large format photographers, includes a repository of primers, how-to articles, user's reviews of equipment, and an active discussion forum. " I use almost nothing other than view cameras, scan ALL my 8x10 and 4x5 negatives and print ALL my images digitally. This post is some of the best info for me I have read in weeks..Evan Clarke

But for now, only if you use the Epson 2200 printer I believe.

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
a mile away and you'll have their shoes.
Phil I will be using it as one method to print my 8x10 B&W work. No doubt many others will too. Good enough for you?
If so, hopefully you can now just shut up.
Brian, other printers down the road I believe
